I think this is one of those times when if you can get away with it, fine.

Gonna, thank you so much. Blue, on the sister board, said a mouthful too. Both of you KNOW this whole type of personality & have dealt with & studied it so much longer than I, so what you say means SO much to me. Thank you. I will hang in there & be strong. R~

I think you're doing all that you can do. You have tried everything possible to keep their relationship going, and it's not as if you're arbitrarily keeping her from him; he's done this to himself. Like they've said, it is NOT a five-year-old's responsibility to maintain contact with him on her own. He is putting adult responsibilities on a little girl, and that in and of itself can be just as damaging. Keep working with the lawyer and the counselor, and hopefully this will be over sooner rather than later.

What is this guy's deal??? He expects a FIVE-YEAR-OLD CHILD to be soley responsible for her relationship with her father who is a GROWN MAN?!!! What a jerk! My STBX doesn't see my kids much, but that's b/c he doesn't want to. Every once in a while he'll call wanting to see them, but with about 30 minutes notice. Of course I nearly always say no, so then he'd tell people that he didn't see the boys b/c I refused to let him...ggrrrr....


He's making threats of suicide, he's clearly mentally unstable, I don't think there's any way in HELL I'd let Avery be alone with him. Not to scare you or anything, but I wouldn't put it past this guy (based on what you've said about him) to just take off with her or something to try to
