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 Dan.

As a dad, I feel like I was a great dad. I coached many of my daughters sports teams. We interacted a lot, and I really enjoyed those days. In high school, she asked that I not attend her games…because she thought I was always critical and telling her how to improve. That hurt. Her mother and I divorced, and I took on a new relationship sometime toward the end of her high school. My daughter often saw me as never really doing well after the marriage ended. Now, she is 29 and has a laundry list of things I did that has caused her to be unhappy. I can’t figure it out…it used to be such a happy, never have to think about it, relationship. I would desperately love to figure it out, and have a great relationship with my daughter.
