| Anyone a psychologist?? FMT ???? |
| I could use some coaching on the best way to bring up a daughter in a household where the father doesn't behave properly. I'm talking about social behavior that my daughter will learn in school is not acceptable behavior, not to mention having to grow up in a household with such behavior.
Anyone have proffessional advice for me. I've had enough therapy to know this requires more therapy, I'm just not in a position to incure the costs. |

Hi Heidi,
I suppose I understand, that is why I was searching for someone with a psychology background.
I have a 5 month old daughter and am worried that she will have a bad example growing up that I will find very hard to explain or excuse. As she grows older, she will learn in school that such behavior is not acceptable. But she will see that dad does it. Further more, she will be exposed to this behavior that will end up affecting her in her adult relationships with men and her overall interaction in society, and will access such behavior as what she grew up with. This is where the psychology needs to come into play.
The social behaviors I am referring from Dad are as follows:
Screaming at people in the parking lot of a grocery store that are driving too fast, shouting "You dick"
Cusing around the house for no "real" reason (the phone has rang twice in the past hour), or an ice cube has fallen on the floor, or milk spilled (all these things are the "small stuff" and accidents happen)
Road Rage - speeding up and racing people in fast cars with me and the baby in the car, shouting out the window and cusing at the drivers (we drive in a mini-van and he's 58 years old, so not age appropriate in my book).
Not paying attention to family events or answering the phone when family calls, or being on time for family functions and instead playing on the computer saying he's "busy". His "busy" is really just internet surfing. (Background - he's a techie nerd and and IT geek for a living). But still, nothing he does on the computer is more important that family in my book, especially if it doesn't have anything to do with work.
Well those are the biggest issues, there's more, but those are definately the ones that rise to the top that I have a hard time finding the words explaining to a little girl, not to mention they are not fun for mom to experience. I'm usually mortified at the non-age appropriatness of these actions.
Help anyone on advice, other than go to therapy, thus why I have requested psychology input. |
