Concerns as a father- Should I worry?

Often when people marry they tend to look past somethings over fear of losing the person they think they love. That behavior may not be healthy. www.littlewarriors.ca is a website about abuse that you could look at. I believe the best thing would be to talk to your daughter about abuse and keeping herself safe. Also you should talk to your ex-wife about your concerns. Good Luck

Being a step father, i can see circumstances where it would be fine,but the main one is where the step has actually been the sole father figure for the majority of the childs life, and the 2 of them have built a true father daughter relationship. However the fact that she has told tou about this lets me know that you are still in her eyes her father, therefoe i personally deem it as unacceptable.And her telling you is probably (whether she said so or not) a good implication that it made her uncomfortable, which would be enough for me to be greatly concerned. Because if it were a genuine and mutual frienship between your daughter and her step i dont feel that she would have ever made mention of the incident, because it would have felt comfortable and completely non threatening to her.I say talk talk talk to her. Watch him and get to work on the legalaties of getting her home to you.

He has no business crawling into her bed waking her up!I The girl is probably young,does not even know what a sexual touch is.She could ignore it,not knowing it.If you have a bad feeling about this guy in many ways,just fight over fire and ice to get your daughter by yourside.You ARE a few of the good dads that care.Dont let all of this go too far,your little girl told you stuff,she trusts you.she does not need to get hurt.She has a great dad,who is not selfish going looking for women and fun,her dad thinks about her safety.That pig of a stepfather could get into trouble for making bad moves on her,but that is a very high price to pay when she it comes to her innocence.If you dont know where to turn for help,try a counselor,or pshycologist,they can lead you further from here,when you tell them all your conserns,I am pretty sure they wont tell you to relax.

Confront him and tell him this is NOT ALLOWED or your going to court to have it ordered. Knowing he would have to be embarassed and answer to a judge in front of strangers should keep him out of her bed. Tell him she is not comfortable with it either or she would not have even mentioned it to you. If he is just a cool guy, he will feel silly and stop, if not, have the local police run his name to be sure he is not a sex offender---well, do that anyway. It is free.
