Dd has never known her biological father. We separated because I was pregnant. She had a photo of him in her room till she was about 3 bur asked me to change the picture for one without him in it. Which I did. I married when she was 4 and she sees Dh as dad and has 2 step siblings too now. She has contact with her bio dads parents and cousins. My concern is how do I broach/ remind her he exists or do I just not bother till she is older? She is 8 now. She appears to just accept she has three set of grand parents etc. I am not overly concerned that her bio dad will get in contact although he has a new partner who has three children so I guess I'm concerned he may get curious. He does live 12 hours away so not next door. Dd is a smart kid and is very happy and secure in our home setup. Maybe im making life too complicated? Any suggestions appreciated.
