WWould it be wrong to block my daughter on Facebook?

HEAR ME OUT... ME & MY DAUGHTER DON'T HAVE ANY KINDA RELATIONSHIP AT ALL AND HAVEN'T MOST OF HER LIFE BECAUSE OF HER MOM.

WELL, I RECENTLY MADE A FACEBOOK ACCOUNT & FOUND HERS COMPLETELY BY ACCIDENT. there's 2 MAIN REASONS I WANNA BLOCK HER.

1. ITS JUST TO HARD SEEING HER PICS. I DON'T EVEN HAVE THEM DISPLAYED AT HOME THEY'RE ALL BOXED UP IN THE ATTIC. & ITS JUST TO HARD SEEING HER.

2. IF SHE SOMEHOW FINDS MINE there's A LINK TO MY INSTAGRAM ACCOUNT. & there's LOTS OF INAPPROPRIATE STUFF ON THERE I WOULDN'T WANT HER TO SEE.

WOULD IT BE BEST IF I WERE TO BLOCK HER? OR IS IT JUST WRONG?

Woah dude, that's a tough situation. I can totally understand why seeing her pics would be rough, especially since y'all don't have a relationship now. And for sure you don't want her accidentally finding your wild Insta stuff!

But blocking her might send the wrong message too, like you don't want her to even have the option to reach out someday if she wanted. Plus her mom could spin it like you're trying to cut her off or something. Dads and daughters can be tricky, man.

Maybe explain it to your daughter directly first before blocking? Keep it real and tell her how you care but it's hard cause of the past, so you need a bit of space online. Say the doors open for talking down the line if she's down. That way you let her know where you're at without shutting her completely out, ya know?

And def clean up that Insta real quick! Girls don't need to see that side anyway haha. I'd just try the honest approach instead of avoiding, takes guts but it's better than her thinkin you disowned her or some shit. You gotta do you though bro, whatever keeps your mental right. Good luck man!

Block her on Facebook and contact her some other way if you want.

So you punish her for her mother’s decisions? Look, I know what it’s like to have a great relationship with a relative, my dad and I are barely working on it and I’m 32. But life is short, you don’t know when yours or her time will come. God forbid she doesn’t pass before you but if she did, just try imagining the unfathomable guilt and devastation you’d feel knowing things could’ve been different. No matter how old she gets, you’re still her dad and in this situation it’s up to you to mend it. You should wanna show her different than what her moms told her all these years, not prove her right.

Yikes, doesn't sound like you're all that innocent in this, do your daughter a favour and block her, she probably has seen all of the inappropriate shit you choose to share online already but this way, it will be harder for her to break and accidentally reach out to you.

Why would you have a public Instagram if there's stuff you don't want others to see?

[Jmmmfi4]

BECAUSE IM NOT CONCERNED WITH MOST OTHERS, MY DAUGHTER YES.

Chances are she has already seen it
