Show dignity in the face of your husband’s propaganda – and understanding for your daughter’s distress, says Mariella Frostrup
The dilemma Two years ago I separated from my husband of 26 years. We have a teenage daughter who lives with me. My ex has had a girlfriend for about a year. My daughter has never met her, but she is naturally very curious.
My daughter tracked the girlfriend down on Instagram and now follows her and my ex, who both post frequently about all the things they are doing. It’s become hurtful to my daughter, who rarely sees her father, yet she sees all these fun things he’s doing. I asked them if they could block my daughter. I thought this was a reasonable request, but so far they have done nothing.
