I can relate to this as I have a 15 year old daughter and am also in the middle of a divorce and have custody of my 3 children. I was on the other side of the coin so to speak though, as my ex-wife did keep a secret from me regarding something that happened to my daughter. When I found out, I was highly upset with her for being a "Friend" rather than being a parent. It's tough when a kid tells you they hate you, or tries to pit divorced parents against each other (not saying this is the case but it happens). But, as I have told my kids, I wasn't put on this earth to be your friend. I was put here to be your parent. If you don't like my decisions, obviously I must be doing it right. Just my OP.
