Definitely sit down and talk.
I have been through many divorces with my mother.
My mother and father got divorced when I was 2 and my brother was 4. During the time that they were divorced (before the death of my father at age 8) my dad had girlfriends.
I remember feeling the same way.
Once your child is a teen, or even younger perhaps, she will understand. But, right now, you need to explain to her that you both love her very much and you and her daddy still love each other very much, but not the way you used to.
It is completely normal for her to striving for her fathers attention. Do you have custody and he has visitation rights? If so, she may be wanting more of his attention than the new lady that he has. ↑ |
