Disney Dad Behaviour - to 'make up' for the dicorce or to alleviate their guilt?
Apologies...I have so many questions, as I have big decisions to make.
So guilty dads indefinitely turn into Disney Dads. Do you think they do to as they genuinely think gifts/days out etc will ‘make up’ for not being in an intact family or is this more for themselves, i.e. to alleviate/absolve their guilt or a combination of both?
Correlation between guilty parenting & non-productive, needy , entitled, selfish children
Hi, I have started to use a new name to protect my identity.
I would really appreciate it if someone could spell this out to me so I can try and communicate the same to my FDH. Whilst he is starting to recognise his parenting skills have not been and are not the best (major understatement), he fails to see and/or understand the repercussions and the harm this is having on his daughters (18 & 20).
Is anyone able to help me clearly understand the correlation? Not least so I can understand myself & try and make some sense of this whole 'situation'. Many thanks
