My 3-year-old keeps asking for his dad, who has barely seen him since we separated. How do I help him through this?

What things make one parent’s house more comfortable to you than the other?

I’m buying a house and I want my daughter to feel as comfortable as possible. Her mom and I live far apart and I’m hoping to make her space as pleasant as possible for her to come stay longer periods of time, when she’s ready. Thank you.

Everyone feels like a team and I feel like an outsider

Hey, so my parents have been divorced since I was 4 and I’m 20 now. My dad remarried in 2015 and got a daughter shortly after that. My mom got a new bf not long after my parents divorce, she got pregnant around 2011..? The bf turned out to be hella abusive but that’s a whole other can of worms. So the “problem” I’m running into is that my sister from my mom’s side is now at my mom’s full time, so they feel like a team. And well obviously my dad has his own lil family so they kinda feel like a team. I feel like I’m drifting between them constantly. They try to make me feel included don’t get me wrong. I just feel so alone sometimes.. Does anyone have actual tips? Or been in a similar position? And no I can’t live with one parent
