Not optimistic
Standing on the Sidelines,
I agree that the death of a parent can be a traumatic experience. However, this happened over 4.5 years ago and he has yet to seek help or even admit that he has any sort of difficulty. So.....no I am not overly optimistic
As I said he was an excellent dad but has not seen his kids play hockey or baseball in four years and we live only ten kilometres apart.
The first year we were seperated my older son played rep hockey and OBA basketball - but gave up both. I think mainly in part because he realized the toll is was making on me to transport him all over the place. If this doesn't make a father straightened up. What will it take?
So no I am not optimistic he will be supportive emotionally or financially in the future.
