My ex as a child had issues with walking. He was bow legged and severely pigeon toed. So bad to the point that he was unable to walk. Thirty some odd years ago the only way for them to correct the problem was to break reset and brace his legs. The doctor informed him that the deformation of his legs was a result of his fathers drug and alcohol use affecting his sperm whe child was concieved. My 1 year old although she can walk she has the same problem with her legs. I found out soon after that he was hanging out and doing speed about the same time she was concieved and she has had other problems health wise do to it. Is it wrong of me to have hatred toward him for all the things wrong with her and be madder at him by the day?

No, there is nothing wrong with this, LBG. You have a right to be upset because he wasn't honest with you up front of what he was doing around the time munchkin was conceived. And no there is nothing wrong with you getting even more upset as each day goes by as you watch her grow up and see the deformations become a bit worse as she walks more and more.
Have you talked to the pediatrician about her options to correct the problem?
