Is your daughter angry with you?

If so is any of the anger justified?

I can see this from a kid's perspective because I WAS that kid. My parents did divorce in my preteens but the way my father handled it made things worse for me personally

He had an affair with a 19 year old friend of mine
He pretended for the longest time that my mom was crazy and he "wasn't having an affair"
He often stopped paying child support
He found another woman right away and gave me a hard time for not being immediately accepting of her
He was critical of me when HIS actions were causing me great pain

You might be the best dad in the world. I have no way of knowing one way or the other. Just take a look in the mirror before you blame a therapist
Thanks for this!
