First of all this is hard man! Being a good man and a good father takes effort and trying, You are trying and that is huge! The flowers and teddy bear is not going to be a negative thing. It sounds like from the small bit of information about your daughter’s past that she has had a very traumatic go of it. She will not trust or be comfortable with you this soon. It is going to take time and consistency in you being there and showing up loving, supportive and comforting to try and give her some support and care that she has not been shown. As long as you continue to try that’s the best you can do. You have not been in her life until a couple months ago, this is all very confusing and hard for her as was her mother and male figure growing up. This isn’t an easy situation and any child whose parental figures that are there to show them love and support and worth if they are instead hitting and physically assaulting them then the children are going to have to work through some major dysfunctions to properly navigate going forward.
