    That is heartbreaking about your daughter......... All I can hope, is that as they get a little older, gain a better understanding of how people, relationships, situations,..... of how they work, that most things are never just one persons fault, that they will mature and at some point come back to you. I have both been in the situation of leaving as a young man & not speaking/acknowledging a parent for years and of having the same done to me as a father. It is all a question of time. I really hope it works out, for both your sakes. ATB

      Thank you. I have three daughters from two mothers and sadly they believe what they have been told. I’m kinda of the opinion now I will never see any of them again. So no expectations on my part any more. They had had plenty of time to respond to letters cards etc I have sent so they don’t need me in their lives.
