<p>I concur.</p>
<p>My father once said that it was better for my sister and I to see no relationship (with him & ex-wife) than a bad relationship. I think he was right. Sometime, I realized that I inherited - either via nature or nurture - of putting up with too much. First instinct is to put up with it, to work with the other person… and my tenth instinct is to leave because it’s more than any human should handle. </p>
<p>There’s also something to be said for Dads who love their daughters for who they are - much easier to expect that men will do that.</p>
