Mom “won” by a legal standpoint in court this week. This is being celebrated by unleashing nasty attorney demands on Dad. You’ve witnessed enough scenes to know how it goes…
Unfortunately, the real loss falls just as heavily on your shoulders as it does Dad’s.
Not to go all retro on you, but a girl really does need a loving father in her life. The common phrase “daddy issues” is widely used to explain the extreme self-degrading behaviors of women who are just trying to get the unconditional love and support they didn’t get from their father’s growing up.
Having a healthy, strong bond with Dad sets the stage for how you expect to be treated by your future partners.
Whether you interpret Dad’s absence in your life as his fault or the choice you are making, will ultimately be up to you. We understand that your choices are being heavily influenced right now and that’s the reason why Dad had to draw a firm boundary in Court. While mom was selfishly concerned with winning at all costs…
Dad was quietly fighting for your well-being.
The Court is now aware of everything that has transpired over the past year and how it has affected you personally. Dad’s win was getting court ordered therapy for you – A trained professional to help you understand the position you’re in and give you tools that will benefit you well into adulthood.
Winners or losers aside, one thing is indisputable –
You have a father who loves you unconditionally who wants to support and be there for you more than anything. Not every girl is so lucky.
