Thanks, gr8dad. I think that is great advice, and I will have him read this. She is at the camp for 2 more weeks. I think he should write her a letter before she leaves there, basically stating what you just said, and then say that if she needs to talk more about it, then he will make it a priority to have some alone time with her so she can get anything else she needs off her chest.

I do know that her mom pounded into her head for years...especially since they got all that money and the kids started living with them again, that their dad is a POC and was abusive, etc etc etc. Of course, we made mistakes over the years in how we handled some things...we are only human after all. My husband is the very opposite of abusive though. My SD knows this, deep down. Heck, she always has her dad wrapped around her little finger. She gets whatever she wants from him, even when he knows he shouldn't give in. I think kids/people who are really truly abused would be appalled at what some consider abuse here. 2 incidents that were accidental, and all of a sudden he is an abusive monster. BAER. This is the guy that sat on our back deck and bawled like a baby when his ex didn't show up with his kids on Christmas day...because it was the first (and only) Christmas he had missed with them since they were born. Many times he sat on that deck and just cried because of how his kids were being treated over there...during the custody battle. OMG...I had never seen a grown man cry like that before and I hope to never see it again. The only way you can hurt him...is thru his kids.
