Well I'm at the point where I have to decide what kind of relationship I want with my Dad. He's been a bad parent in the past but in the past few years he's put forth a genuine effort to change and I'm returning that effort by developing a relationship with him.
It takes two people to make a relationship of any level work. Is your dad willing to put forth the effort? If not then it probably won't work.
(On a side note this is why divorce really sucks isn't it. You get caught between families and relationships and dynamics and end up in one big mess).
Maybe call once and awhile, check in. Give him an opportunity to create a relationship. Do your part, as much or as little as you see fit, the rest is up to him.
