re: Parent Problems looking for advice

Cut him out. Your daughter will be fine.

My grandfather walked out on my grandmother, my dad and my aunts. My dad repeatedly turned down chances to reconnect because he never showed interest in the rest of the family he abandoned. When he was dying, they reached out to us and my parents told me to give me a chance to finally meet him if I wanted.

My dad didn't want to see the piece of shite, so why would I? He died, we move on. My dad is one of my heroes. My grandfather was just some guy with the same name.
