I am divorced with 2 children. My husband and I are different religions. He held a religious ceremony for our daughter that I just found out about from a 3rd party even though the event happened 3 months ago. I am extremely upset that my daughter did not share this information with me. She spends 2 weekends a month with her father and we always discuss what they did that weekend. I just cant get over the hurt that she did not share this with me.
I think compounding my upset feelings is the feelings I have had for at least the past year or more that I am the parent who provides music lessons, soccer, skating, running, fancy birthday parties, buys the name brand clothes, buys her stuff just because I love her. I received no child support for over 2 years and struggled beyond words to just pay my basic living expenses and killed myself to come up with money so she would not have to do without swimming lessons, etc. and she could be just like her friends.
I am hurt and confused. Any advice?
