Well, that's charming isn't? I am not bored at all by the OP and I can understand why, although she has already made a decision, she would like to see other people's opinion. She is after all dealing with a problem regarding her father, not just any old acquaintance!
I think what esmerelda was getting at was there is obviously no love lost between the ex(?) stepmother and the OP and nothing, anyone could say would change that so why post (if that makes sense).....and many a poster has been asked that very question in the past.2014 Target;

there is no love lost between us which is a fair comment but the question i asked in the very first post is "am i being too hard" which applies to my father.
i have had some wonderful advice here and i am here thinking about it.
from what i have gathered, it is a fairly reasonable request from myself.
the reason i raised it on here is because the moment of doubt popped up briefly.
i just don't understand how someone like her would expect to see my child. and this is not from assuming. this is from texts i have seen personally.bah... some people like her are born brainless.
I have spoken to my husband today about this post and he agrees tremendously with a majority of you advisors and we are now on the same page in terms of what to expect with our child.
i do have to agree with Tbagpuss with the pushy dad, i don't think he sees me as an adult and he tends to listen to men rather than women apart from the ex wife. i will try that tactic and have my husband speak to him.
thanks to most of you posters on here taking time to help me out mentally and physically. i now feel better that it is not me being a difficult cow. :T
and for those who find this boring, no one forced you to read or comment here. just read and run instead.0
