It is absolutely not normal to become hostile/violent towards your father and reject him over such a long period just because he left a marriage (let alone a abusive one). There are millions examples (even with abusive parents) disproving this. Plus he didnt stopped showing up: as its proven by Alices own emails she made it stop. And eh, "supportive" and Alice...no comment. I think indeed kids should be given more credit that they are not becoming like this completely on their own, the evidence of Alice's influence is quite overwhelming. It's not even an assumption. I also think the whole idea that children can just reject parents while being minors is pretty problematic: what if you want neither? Why should a parent keep paying? It's a can of worms.
Awww they are jealous
