        So many children find relief *for life* staying estranged from a parent, and the idea that all children must miss their estranged fathers is just not rooted in reality. Before my own dad got back in touch with me, I did not miss him and did not pine for that relationship

        Sorry to pop off on one, but this language is wielded by abusive fathers to gain access to the children they put at risk. Parroting that is literally dangerous and, again, pushes an argument that doesn’t apply in most families struggling with this

        Just remembered when the (court-mandated) counsellor said to me “every girl misses her daddy” and how, even at 16, I was like “how are you legally employed to do this”

        I find it so mad that my local MLA from home is being problematic to the extent my colleagues have noticed

        What language should she have used? I do agree with your post, just wondering what would be a better way to say it.

        What'd be a better phrasing? How should Paula get this out there positively to shine a light on people who are alienated. The good ones who did nothing wrong.
