Dads want to be involved, when someone blows hot and cold...
dilemma for many families - children love it when dads give them more attention so in today's Sun newspaper I've written a guide on getting dad involved with the children over the school holidays. Check it out for some practical tips that can smooth the path for dad to be hands on.
On my weekly iVillage.co.uk blog that goes later live sometime today I've answered a woman's dilemma about her ‘disappearing’ boyfriend - he's amazing when they're together but out of sight and out of mind.
How easy for him to be loved up with her when it suits him. But when he is not with her he doesn't even answer her messages... a third rate way to treat someone.
TODAY’S THOUGHT: are you allowing someone to do this to you? They're 100% full on when with you but when apart it's like you don't exist?
Check out my blog for lots of advice but my main tip is to sit them down for a proper conversation about what you expect when you're apart. Don't let them wriggle out of treating you this way... These people are so good at coming up with excuses for why they haven't been in touch that sound plausible BUT if it doesn't feel right it's not right!
Take care of yourself, Pam X.
