I have friends that were denied access to their fathers, and they will never forgive their mothers for it. Some have spent their entire adult lives making up for the lost time.

I was living in the D. C. area. By the time they moved back to D. C., I was in the Philly area. Then they moved to Florida. Been there done that. I can offer you some encouragement. My daughter and I have a very good relationship. It's not clingy. But it is strong. When my first daughter was two, about six months after the divorce, my ex up and moved to St. Louis for a job.

Then they moved to Florida.

Been there done that.

I can offer you some encouragement. My daughter and I have a very good relationship. It’s not clingy.

But it is strong.
