Plans got rearranged bc my refund came late and i did a little bday celebration at my house but were gonna take her out to a cute baby play area later. Now, i didnt invite the dad to my house bc he said some really nasty things to me. But he will be invited to the baby play area and will be able to take her home. I feel he shouldve been there but idk i feel i shouldnt have to tolerate disrespect. What do you think?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However she is his daughter. I dont want to be petty and be a difficult coparent. He will be able to come to the indoor play area and take her home and be with her. Im just trying to be fair while also having boundaries. You know? But you're right. I would stand by my daughter if she did the same and was treated the way i was.

If the man was verbally abusive to you then you made a good decision in not inviting him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought this was interesting: Romans 14:19 So then let us pursue what makes for peace and for mutual upbuilding. In my opinion, you pursued what made for peace in that moment. You seemed to avoid what could’ve been conflict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel he shouldve been there but idk i feel i shouldnt have to tolerate disrespect. What do you think?? No, If he disrespects you you can decide when and where you want him to be involved in yours and your daughters life. Colossians 3: 21, Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged. The Bible tells us that God loves His daughters and the children that they bear. Whenever God gives one of His daughters to a man, He desires that the man love, care, protect, and provide for her. In no way does the Scripture teach that women and children be considered second rate or inferior to men. God finds them so special that He asks for special care to be given them; care that only Biblically-based men can provide. It is without a doubt that women are quite capable of taking care of themselves. However, God created men and women to be physically different. And due to the physical nature and strength that God gave men, He has charged them with the provision and protection of their families. However, the physical nature and strength of a man are to be managed with grace and gentleness. Edited June 26, 2022 by HAZARD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
