Firstly, I just want to start off by saying I’m so sorry that this happened to you. I’m actually disgusted with her behaviour. I’m a lucky mother to a beautiful 5 month old and I’d quite literally rather die then be apart from my child for any amount of time to be with someone else. I don’t know where life will lead me as I am 18 but I could rest my life on that so clearly something is wrong with her. But you seem to be an amazing dad, I know waking up and doing what you have to do everyday must be difficult but you do it and it won’t matter much but I’m proud of you.

Now, obviously I want your daughter to see her mother but I just don’t think her mum deserves it. I hope you get whatever outcome you’re looking for in this situation.

Stay strong, this’ll try to beat you down and I hope you have days where the kids can go to family members so that you’re allowed to have days where you get to feel all your feelings and put it back together until eventually you don’t feel anything about it at all anymore.
