Hello,
My husband left home almost 2 years ago (had a Manic Episode and the rest in History!).
But aside form about 6 months that he was very sick and only seeing our daughter a few times per month, he has always been an amazing father, 100% present in her life and she Loves him to death!
She sees him 2-3 times weekly. And talks to him on the phone everyday.
Now he is thinking about moving back to Brazil and I'm devastated for my daughter.
But here is my question, I don't want to suffer too much for what can happen to my daughter before it happens, but the many statistics we read about children growing up without a Parent is so SCARY!
Considering that I have family around, we're very tight family, my daughter spends a lot of time with them, I'm 100% dedicated to my little. We live in a very healthy-nurturing environment.
I would do anything possible to minimize the emotional impact the 'loss' of her father may have on her.
My question is, should I pay much attention to all this NEGATIVE statistics, will my daughter be okay if I keep giving her all my love, attention, family, healthy foods and education???
I'm heart broken with the prospect of having to answer to the many question she will have once her father leaves :-(
PLEAE ANY ADVICE
