Mum of my daughter won't let me take her out on my own as she doesn't trust me | The Sun

DEAR DEIDRE: THE mother of my daughter won’t let me take her out on my own because she doesn’t trust me.

She told me this to my face during an argument.

I’m 31 and my ex is 29. We were together for six years until we broke up six months ago.

We are still living together until I can find alternative accommodation.

I want to remain close by so I can keep seeing our three-year-old daughter.

Recently my ex criticised me for not taking my girl out.

You can also send a private message on the DearDeidreOfficial Facebook page.

But how could I when she says she doesn’t trust me?
I can’t win.

I’m also concerned because our daughter isn’t talking.

I feel she needs to see a specialist, but my ex won’t let me organise this.

She never listens to anything I say.

DEIDRE SAYS: When parents separate it’s important any children continue to have a good relationship with both their mother and father.

Your ex sounds to be undermining your ability as a parent.

My support pack When Parents Fall Out explains more about your daughter’s feelings and needs.

Talk to your ex again.

If you think your daughter has a speech problem, talk to her GP who may test her hearing and suggest she see a speech therapist.
