I think there are more here than you know that have been down that same tunnel you fight to stay away from and are going through at times, but you are correct in that your daughter really does need you bro.
My kids pick on me and give me shit in good jest all the time, but they adore me and I know they care for me more than anything, because Dads matter.
Hell…Me, wife (who raised them, but didn’t birth them), and my two college kids are going on our annual Rockville trip this week and have so many more memories like this that we share, so hang in there and show her what a real damn father is.
