Family separation

Family separation

Hi it's been a tough fathers day for me second year without hearing from my adult kids after the nasty marriage breakdown and divorce involving domestic violence against me by my ex wife. I am very down because l care and think about my kids every day and l have a granddaughter that l haven't seen for 2 years also. I feel my ex wife is controlling the kids having turned them against.me .I worry about my granddaughter growing up without her grandfather because my daughter is too selfish to allow her to see me. I have never hurt anyone but l feel like l am.such a bad dad and l hate to think what crap my granddaughter is being told.It takes away meaning to my life. I doubt the situation will ever improve. Why why do people still hurt me???

Re: Father in law

Hey @Leeanne1 , I'm on just tonight and I'm off for the week again. I've got leave that needs to be used up - not because I want to be away!

I'm thinking of you and @john74 too. I can hear how estrangement from loved ones can be so hard.

Whilst we will never and can't REPLACE them, we can walk alongside you along your journey. We are holding your hand until the day you feel strong enough to let go.

You mean a lot to us.

Re: Father in law

And I'm glad you have found us because it's so nice to see you pop in here and there. Even if I don't read the messages straight away, I always get to them @Leeanne1

I think about your Christmas cooking. I think about your craft projects. I think about the time you have with your mum.

It's such an honour to be part of it.

You sound like a lovely person 💞 😊

Re: Father in law

Funny you say that. In a way, on the forums, I can really be 'lovely', but I don't think I'm 'lovely' in the real world. I just tend to be able to express myself better in text than in speech.

Put it this way. In real like, I don't like socialising and hanging around people.

But on the forums, I love it.

Go figure @Leeanne1 . I don't get it.

I'm feel like a free bird on the forums, but in real life, I feel I need to mask all the time.
