My daughter is 15 she lives with me but has only for the last 4 months, she was living with her father who brainwashes her soooo bad. He tells her that things are so bad at my house and tells her things are so perfect there, No things arent perfect at my house but they are just ordinary. Every weekend she goes over there he brain washes her move to move back in with him, I dont have the money he has so I cant buy her all the things he can and I have 3 other children to show my attn too, she is the only child over there. She choose to come and live with me, I didnt pressure her like he does. She tells me he makes her believe things are so bad at my house when she is at his, but when she gets home she realizes that they are not. I think she is playing both sides,
What do I do? He pressures her to be perfect. She cant even wear sweatpants thats how bad he is. She is a gymnast, in cheerleading and softball, very active but thinks she has to be perfect for him. Can anyone help Please!

wow, sad situation that so many of us have been thru. I would say to talk to your daughter as much as possible...see what she's feeling, even tho he is telling her all this stupid stuff, she is old enough to know the real deal. Its hard having a child split between two homes, especially when one person wants to bad mouth the other..Your daughter is at an age where she may be easily impressed but also should be able to form her own opinions and make up her own mind about whats real and whats not.

You shouldn't buy her gifts to try to compete against with him...just stick it out...in the feature she will realize what is right....but make sure she isn't falling under peer presure like having sex and drugs and stuff just because she does really well in school...

For the time being let her take care of stuff and if that don't work hire a lawyer

It sounds like your daughter is on to him. trust her to come to her own conclusions.
