Wwyd? Thoughts?

Hey mamas. So my hubby and I went through a little situation with my daughter’s father. My hubby is a great husband and step dad and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Last Friday, we went out to celebrate him rolling off of a big project. My phone was dead and we were not paying attention to his phone. I asked one question about my stepson and my hubbys eyes widened. I asked what’s going on and he said “our daughter is still at school” I nearly SCREAMED. School ends at 3:30 and the school had been calling us for an hour and a half. For context, on Fridays our little girls biological father is supposed to pick her up from school. Luckily my sister in law lives 1 minute away and we live a block from our little girls school. She cried when me and my hubby picked her up. Alone with me she began hitting herself because she said she doesn’t understand why her dad doesn’t love her, that it may be because she’s bad. She’s such a GOOD girl and to emphasize .. SHES 5!! 💔 this upcoming Friday she doesn’t have school. Should we not say anything to her father and see what he says? I don’t know what to do. I never kept her from him but this feels different.

Omfg, im so sorry. I cant imagine. I honestly wouldnt say anything about her not having school. My heart hurts for your daughter. I would straight out message him and ask what happened to him picking her up, not mention no school and see if he says anything. If he doesnt id ask again. Its not right for him to not show for his daughter and have her question if she isnt the reason. I really hope it gets sorted

That isn't right and I agree. You shouldn't mention to him about not having school next friday and see what he does. You daughter seems like she deserves the whole world

Noooo absolutely not. Your poor baby! For her sake, please get her into therapy. She’s only 5 and clearly already very traumatized by him and his absence. It’s already affecting her self image, confidence and self love. Him forgetting to get her and then not saying anything about it is absolutely unacceptable. What would have happened if you weren’t able to save the day? Thats neglect and honestly emotional abuse towards your daughter. I’m so sorry and I hope you can get her help before he does anything else to hurt her:(

@Julianna we sadly are having a hard time finding places that aren’t out of pocket. We might have to do one of those virtual therapy centers, but she thrives when she’s in person. He hasn’t responded to any of my texts since last week. He hasn’t even tried to call or FaceTime her. She’s so sweet and has a big heart. I hate that she has to learn who he is so young. My hubby just wants to adopt her but we all know how men can act. Her dad —he’ll act as if she’s his possession not simply his child. We had other situations with candy and she started having meltdowns, cursing, singing songs about sex, etc. so maybe this should be the cherry on top that she only goes to see the grandmother and her aunts.
