I don't know why people are tripping on the fact that my ex and I still talk and I have him help me out with everything baby related. When I ask them what they want me to do they reply, "what every other single mom does, everything on her own," but I don't understand why would I do that if I don't have to, if my daughter has a father who wants to be active in every aspect possible. I'm not one of those women who is bitter over the break up, I'm not going to hurt my daughter's relationship with her father because he and I had a failed relationship. It just doesn't make sense to me. Maybe they're used to deadbeats, I don't know. I'm just glad he is willing to be there.
I get the same! Trevor helps me even if it's not baby related you can't just stop loving each other. it's dangerous to meet the right person at the wrong time..... we learned that we don't hate each other! we love each other very much
Don't let them stress you Hun. What you are doing is excellent. I am the same way I can't stand when women use their kids as a way to hurt the fathers it hurts the kid also and it builds resentment keep doing what you're doing a few years down the line your princess will thank you
Remember misery LOVES company. I find it great that you and your ex have a great relationship still. If these are your friends telling you tondo this then I don't think they're true friends they should be happy for you not knock you down
no need to punish a guy that cares for you and his child. they should leave you alone. just because the relationship is over doesn't mean the friendship has to be. you are extremely lucky
And doing what's best for her is my top priority, I think most of these people are used to having dead beat dad's around I guess. And I feel incredibly lucky, my ex is a good guy. @monilovesautumn
exactly. you are doing what's best for you and your baby. and if he wants to be there so be it. you are lucky enough to have someone to be there for you . just because they are not doing the greatest doesn't mean you can't .
Seriously @momofroyalty
I've never understood using children as a pawn, my mother did the same thing to me and now I feel like I've wasted time with my dad because it turns out he's actually a really great guy. I'd never want to do that to my daughter. @boymama
Sounds like you're doing everything right. That is what seems best for your child. Forget other people. 😁👍🏼
I think that's a very positive way to look at things, I respect it. And I never agree with people using the kids against their ex to hurt them... Unless they are actually abusive or on drugs or something and shouldn't be around the kid. But I do agree with you. If me and my husband ever were to have issues, he would still be in the kids lives 100%
but aren't right in a relationship I know what you mean
