Dear Dáithí: My daughter is with an older guy — she seems to make all the sacrifice in the relationship

He has children from a previous relationship and doesn't want any more. She says she doesn't want children but I know in my heart this is not true. How can I make her see sense?

Dáithí Ó Sé: You have to talk to her about this and not in a ‘you’re wrong and I’m right’ kinda way. Listen to her and be there for her, that is all you can really do at this point.

Dear Dáithí,

I’m very worried about my daughter. She is going out with a guy 12 years older than her.
