2.5 year old not wanting her dad

He is absolutely heartbroken, he can’t even look at her and smile without her looking like she dislikes him or getting upset-what can we do about this? It happens a lot and this morning he said he can’t take it anymore, he is so upset! He genuinely feels like she hates him. Obviously I reassure him, and said she’...
