I think that it's sad that your dad tried to take your daughter away from you, especially given the fact that he had molested you when you were a child.
She is an adult now?
Thank you Callaway. My father did more than molest me.
He pushed my hand down on radiators to blister them when he "played" with me. He allowed me to be molested by my cousins when I was very young. Then by him as a young teenager; he drugged me with quaaludes and seconal to do it -- the same stuff he got caught with, prosecuted for, and almost convicted -- until my Mother testified for him. He incested his adopted sister when she was 14, according to my Mom's dying declarations. When my daughter was 14, he started grooming her. When I tried to protect her, he bashed my head into his walls about 40 times like a battering ram, tore 1/3 of the hair off my scalp, sizeable contusions, and gave me a significant brain injury (TBI) from which I was very severely disabled for at least 4 years if not longer. When my Mom tried to help me protect both myself and my daughter from him, he triggered my Mom to committ suicide on his front lawn. He was ordered to pay adult child support for my autism; he never paid any of it. Instead, he and my step-mother (who writes children's books), funneled it thru several fancy trusts for their upper-end lifestyle, and left me without the autism support. Just to make sure I would never be able to help myself, he testified against my bar admission saying I was bad for not letting him prey on and harm my autism even more. He subjected my daughter to seeing her grandmother die of 3rd degree burns over 100% of her body.
Thank you for saying you think its sad. Without autism court access there is nothing I can do against this kind of predator conduct on my autism. My daughter and I just have to live with it. My daughter is now about 30. She is still having trouble finding and establishing any kind of solid relationship with a man after seeing what her grandfather did to her grandmother. But at least she has a good relationship with me, and hopefully someday she will heal from all this I hope.
