In that I am going through this myself, I can feel some sympathy for him re the frustration, but what he did was inexcusable. I try to call my daughter every night. My ex is so mean that she blocked my phone number. I had to buy my daughter a cell phone, but my ex takes it away as punishment. Hell, I was in the hospital for 12 days with a heart condition... the ex blocked the hospital line so that I couldn’t speak to my daughter.
The ex has been trying very hard to poison my daughter (who is 11 also) against me. She makes her stand in front of her when she does talk to me on the phone...so my daughter would prefer not to talk to me on the phone. But I still call every night and leave her a voicemail that I am thinking about her and that I love her and miss her... I wonder if she gets any of them?
Hang in there RayBob. It’s worth it.
