Husband 47yrs is annoying our 16yr old daughter and driving her insane.


Hi I’m a mom To a 16 yr old. She is my only child and her father and I got divorced when she was 7. But now he’s back in the picture and has been for 4yrs now.When my daughter was younger she was very close to him. They would go out and do things together and play together but now she’s a teenager and doesn’t want to do that stuff anymore and she just kind of just is aggravated by him nowFrom what my daughter has told me her dad never has anything to talk about with her. She says when I’m out of the room or outside her dad says “Farts” and starts laughing. She told me it makes her uncomfortable and she doesn’t like being left alone with him because he says that and a bunch of random stuff while I’m not in the room. She said he doesn’t have anything to say to her. When I’m not there he starts singing songs out of nowhere and my daughter told me she just sits there and waits for him to stop. Then 5 minutes later he’ll do it again.I told her if he starts that silly stuff and can’t find anything to talk about then she needs to start up a conversation. She said she did it was about a basketball game and he just ignored her.He’s been back in the picture for 4yrs now. Ever since then they don’t really have anything to do with each other. They barely even talk to each other and they never do anything together anymore.When I was out shopping yesterday I got a call from my daughter saying her dad is acting weird. I said what do you mean weird and she said he asked if he could hold her like a baby and my daughter said she didn’t want to and her dad said we never do anything fun anymore. When my daughter watches tv he turn the volume to 5. All the way down to 5 because he says he doesn’t like to hear it. It drives him crazy. He’s like an old man. But when he watches stuff it’s blared all the way up to 16 but when she gets the remote it gets turned down to 5 and so she just gets up and leaves. Sometimes they even argue over the volume on the tv. Which is completely stupid but it happens quite frequently.How do I help this situation? It sounds like to me my husband is just trying to break the silence when I’m not there? I think he would say Farts around a 16 yr old. Or he’s nervous when I’m not there? I don’t know but we need help. Also how do I help with my husband is constantly annoying our daughter? via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2PICisK
