Comment on So you grew up with a dad who didn’t know how to express love? Here’s how it could be affecting you today by Marissa.

My 17 year old daughter and her father do not speak to each other at all. We are all under the same roof and the tension is so thick that I feel like I’m having small breakdowns everyday. She is unable to have healthy relationships with the opposite sex. I try to tell her you speak to total strangers on the street or to your friends fathers but you won’t acknowledge your own father. I don’t know how to teach or guide her in the right direction about how she act towards him. He always tell me I allow it and I make excuses for her and I do, I’m trying to keep the peace, because I want everyone to set an example for my 4 year old daughter. How should I approach her on how to be respectful.
