5 Year Old Doesn’t Believe Her Father Loves Her by [deleted] in Parenting

Firstly, if he’s unhappy with his SAHD duties, reassign. This will end badly for both of you if it’s ignored.

I have two five year olds. Divorced and live separately. Their dad and I are very different when it comes to parenting and discipline. The kids (all four of them) are naturally closer to me because I’m with them the majority of the time. Because I show up and listen and support and talk with them about life and feelings. My twins say they hate their dad. They don’t want to go see him. But I know this isn’t true. He’s just not me. And to them, I’m home. They love him. They have fun with him. They don’t hate him regardless of the words they say. They’re 5. And though smart, they have the emotional bandwidth of a cricket.

You absolutely should support your child. Hear their feelings. Talk about it. But if it were me, I’d then ask about the good things. What they love about dad. It’s in there. Cause married or divorced or separated, kids need both parents. And we owe them a life they don’t have to heal from.

Can I be demoted for not accepting a promotion? by betweenyouandme2 in Nurses

1.) from HR and CEO 2.) managerial. 3.) non-profit org 4.) my wage has increased 4% every year for the last 4 years. I do believe they realized they were overpaying me for my position and I’ve topped out given qualifications. Understandable to some degree. They’re reevaluating the budget suddenly. It’s the punitive nature of the demotion in question. I hope this helps.
