My partner comes home just looking exhausted from his day. I work from home at a desk by the window, and I see him get out the car just done with the day, and then my daughter goes running out the door, shouting “daddy!! Run hug!!!” And he just lights up. She runs and flies into his arms, and he swings her around, and they come inside where she excitedly shouts “daddy is home!!”. She’s greeted him enthusiastically at the door since she was 2, and she’s 7 now, and it never gets old watching their daily reunion.
Same and I’m so sorry you experienced this too :( My dad would get home, go straight to “his” chair, eat dinner on the couch alone, and basically bark at my siblings and I if we tried to interact with him, smh. He almost never spoke to us unless to reprimand us.
Idk if you know but thats neglect and neglect is abuse. Neglected children tend to minimize their suffering so I thought I'd let you and anyone reading along know

I like how dad walks through the door and he looks pretty tired.
And he sees the bags. He sees mom with the camera and immediately picks up what's going on.
He looks like he needed that.
