"My daughter wants to know who her real father is"

Loading player...
Every Wednesday afternoon, Stacey and JSbu share the stories from KZN that they need solutions to, This week the team received a voice note from a woman in KZN.This is her story: My baby's father left me while I was pregnant with my child. He has only asked once about her wellbeing and has never helped out with child support. Now, every time my daughter sees a man, she asks if he's her dad or not. I have purposefully tried to protect my daughter from this conversation, but she is older now. How do I have this conversation with her without breaking her heart? A part of me just wants to lie and say her father passed away. Please can I remain anonymous.
