My daughter (7yr) wants to go live w| her dad. I'm iffy about it, but it's something to think about

My son says he wants to live wt his father too im sitting on it i know he loves him so much he loves spending vacays there and they spoil him

@mommy121518 same here, kinda. A lot has changed since she isn't HIS only child anymore. She was his only for 5 years, then he had two more daughters 8 months apart 🤦🏽‍♀️ but he loves her so much but his quality time lacks a lot & I'm afraid she won't see him often

The way I see it is if you say know shell resent you for it. It sucks but as long as he wouldn’t hurt her I’d say give it a shot. She might find that grass isn’t really greener on the other side haha.

I have a feeling my 8 year old is going to say the same thing soon about wanting to go live with her dad and I’m scared.

@cheyenne.frazier that's a good point! She thinks she'll have "the life" over there, but she has it GREAT here, but she doesn't see it . She only sees when I'm punishing her or if I say no. Smh

@rebecca3009 awh. Don't be scared, just think LOOONG and hard about it

@krisfreeman, I am because ever since she’s been born it’s been her and I I did everything for her when she had issues as a child and he dad wasn’t apart of it. He’s really only became apart and able to function over the past 2 years. I am very grateful that he has turned a new leaf and he is with someone that I love and she’s great to my daughter. My husband and her sisters would have a very hard time with it if it happened.

@rebecca3009 my husband would probably tell me "NO" to be honest. Even though it's not his child, he just know that her life will completely change if she moves with her real dad. Her siblings will DEFINITELY miss her too, it'll be hard on is all but I think we'll manage and I'll get her on the wknd

@krisfreeman, yeah I know because my mom refused to let us live with our dad and I hated her for so long because of it. Then I grew up and realized how shitty of a father I really did have and I would have never been happy living with him

@cheyenne.frazier I noticed early on that my father wasn't s***, and my mom would threaten to send me to live with him if I was bad 😂

@krisfreeman, haha as fun as that is I wouldn’t do that. Let her make that realization for herself. I resented my mom so much for talking shit about my dad. He’s still half of her so dissing him she may feel like your dissing her in a way. Not all kids react that way clearly but some do. Just be careful how you say things! And do what you feel is best! Your her momma you know her best

@cheyenne.frazier thank you so much momma 😙
