My second ex keeps blatantly reminding me why she is an ex 8-)

Right in front of my 7 y/o daughter she picks up from me after I've had my daughter over half the school holidays I get attacked and belittled and degraded as a 'sub-standard' parent because of little things that upset her perfectly choreographed day. My defence is to 'shut up' and go into another part of my house because my ex will not enter my house.

By neutralising the narcissistic attacks I don't create arguments in front of my daughter as parenting issues are not my daughter's problem - they are problems between me and her mum.

But these constant 'you are not living up to my expectations' attacks that have happened basically since 2016 when we were trying to get pregnant are the primary reason I left to live by myself.

I really am better off alone.

As adults your both gonna have differences in life it's natural but regardless of how your ex behaves the only standards that really matter about living up to is those of a father. I don't see my kid fella and I love him with all my heart. Focus on your kid mate and the let the mum have her moans. She will say what she wants to say regardless. Whether she is correct or not. But if you show the love of a father to your daughter then that love will always be there because she will also see this behaviour. Good luck
