Stepping back and allowing some seriously bad “sans parenting” was painful – but necessary to break the “dad’s entirely to blame” united front.
Dear Alexa is better off by our stepping back and allowing truth to unfold. We make every effort to disengage from mom so this situation can calm down. This gives Dear Alexa a much-needed break to rediscover her own feelings and thoughts about who Dad is.
We’ve released far more than we’re comfortable with. We’ve allowed difficult experiences to unfold naturally even knowing the full impact and consequences. From this space of calm that we’ve created, the truth is slowly rising.
Sometimes a good parent needs to step back and simply love and support an amazing daughter’s budding ideas and choices. Trust that one day she’ll be making plans to spend time with us – All the wiser for having this experience.
Reconnection is not only possible – Your relationship can be better than ever – IF you handle the disconnect in a positive way.
We know how horrible it would be to have Dear Alexa leave and not communicate for over a year – We know because we experienced it.
Allowing kids to fail doesn’t mean we’re bad parents. It means we’re showing them that they have every resource available within themselves to pick themselves up and go again.
Can we skip difficult growth experiences? Or does our avoidance only delay and magnify the discomfort we naturally experience while growing into the people we want to become.
Until we are able to reconnect more fully, we await these lovely glimpses of the amazing person you are discovering.
Some day you will discover that every part of you is wonderful, good enough, and loved unconditionally by your father.
You have the power to alter your reality. If that concept feels too big, know that in any given moment, you have the power to change your mind… and that will change your reality.
I can’t wait for the day when we get to delve deep into these concepts of altering our reality – In another time/space dimension, I believe we already are.
