Title: communication Post by: rarsweet on January 23, 2015, 04:39:28 PM Every time I text him about our daughter he is rude and degrading, so I texted him back today and said I am not going to be put down anymore and all future communication will be via email. His responded was " ya go ahead keep attempting to make communication harder, threatening me isn't the answer, but do what makes YOU feel better, I am here for DAUGHTER."

Push back is pretty normal.

My mom who babysits even writes in the journal, so that we are communicating with him.

Its good that you're letting him know what's going on with her, it can only benefit your daughter that you continue to tell him her routines. Why isn't he writing in it? Just to be difficult? |
