I'm not concerned about what my ex is or isn't doing, but rather how it is impacting my 6 year old daughter emotionally. My ex is unreliable on visits, and my daughter is over the moon when he doesn't show up, but she always comes home telling me about something her stepmum has said about me. My daughter quickly comes to my defense but she shouldn't need too. My daughter has also said that her stepmum says nasty things directly to her making her feel unwanted.

Its parental alienation and emotional abuse, I am aware of that but I don't want my daughter damaged emotionally if its left to continue.
