Emily, my six year old daghter lived with her dad and stepmom from 18 months old. We had joint custody, I had liberal visitations and she was able to share equal time between us. We were all living in Florida at the time which made this possible. In October of 2005, he moved to NY with Emily. I moved up there as well to be able to see her, of course. She hated the cold and missed all her other family that lived down here in Florida so I decided I would try to fight for full custody to return her "home", back to Florida with me. I eventually won and he was granted liberal visits, summer vacations, holidays, etc. I even offered to pay for airfare. Bottom line....her and I came back to Florida in November of 2006 and we never heard from him again or anyone else in that family she came to know for almost 4 years!. He just vanished! Now my little girl is devistated! Did he die? Why doesn't he call? I miss my Nay-Nay (stepmother)! What the heck am I supposed to tell her? Anyone have any suggestions. Her depression is so obvious. I don't know what to tell her.
Thanks for listening...
