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???
Can anyone help me to use this new setup please I've been trying to talk to someone

Re: Family separation
Hi @Leeanne1 sorry to hear that you haven't been having so many community responses lately, they can ebb and flow a bit on here which can be challenging when you're wanting to connect. Was there something specific that you were wanting to chat with the forums community about?
