Another text did follow last night

Hey y'all. Another text came in late last night and of course it is all about her.

Here it is exactly as written.."I miss my daughter. Does she say that she does not want to come to my house. is she under the impression she is permentaly at your house"

My thoughts are that the exwn is trying to get me in the middle of this. This is an issue the exwn and my daughter will have to work out. I didn't cause it and I can't cure it and I don't want the drama or the ensuing chaos that always comes with negotiating with the terrorist named exwn. I provide a safe, emotionally calm (most of the time, lol, she is 13 and I am human) home for us to live in together. We have fun, and we do chores. She opens up and talks to me sometimes, and sometimes she sits and ipod's who knows what! Grades are good, grooming good, room a ground zero movie set lookalike. Feels like we are doing life on life's terms. My kid has not mentioned Mom at all this week, and I am leaving it alone also. I figure my job is to keep my house a safe haven, and to let Mom and daughter figure their crap out.

After running it by two people this morning I sent the exwn this message word for word. "This is something you and she need to work out directly."

I am glad to report my first reaction last night when I got the text was mild disgust, like a fly that you can't swat and won't stop nipping at your feet. These disturbances are normal fare and will keep happening from time to time. I have the tools to deal with them. I don't like it, but I can only keep my side of the street clean.

I am also aware some of this drama is the result of a 13 yr old daughter who pushes hard for her way as she is trying to find her way in this world. My job is being a good Dad. I take it seriously, and will not be drawn into the narc battleground where I will always give up way too much to gain nothing.
