The wonderful weekend I expected to be happy because my two daughters came home became a nightmare. They arrived home Sunday morning at around 2 in the morning. I waited for them that late because I wanted them to eat the supposed dinner they requested.
The came home that late because my eldest had a team dinner at work and as expected did not eat anymore and decided to sleep while my second daughter ate a lot while we shared some stories.
Hubby planned a dinner on Sunday but my 2 daughters had to meet their friends and told us that they were just going to follow us. I was doing some ironing of clothes when hubby interrupted me to prepare. But when I already got dressed he decided to cancel the dinner because of his frustration upon knowing that the two young ladies were going to be late.
So its a disaster!

That is what I am also trying to understand and making my hubby understand it too but it seems so quite difficult for him to understand that. Maybe soon he will

@JudyEv Yes of course. He always wants to spend quality time with the kids no matter how they have grown up

@cherigucchi I can understand that some fathers would feel very hurt and upset.

I´m sorry for you. Even the best of daughters don´t think about their parents feelings at times.

That is true but I will still love and understand them just the same.

That is true but there is nothing I can do but have an understanding heart for them.

@cherigucchi It would be nice should they also have an understanding heart for their parents.

I'd cancel, too, if they didn't care enough to be on time.

Your daughters don't seem very considerate., I don't blame you for being upset.

They would realize that sooner or later.
