I have a 5 year old little girl who is going through a very, very rough time. She constantly complains that she doesn't want to go on the supervised visits with her biological father, yet gets drawn in very easily by the MATERIALISTIC things that he gives her. She is easily won over with things, yet when she gets out she becomes depressed, angry, even violent towards me. Is there anything I can do to help her get past the materials and the fear of telling him the truth and standing up for herself?

I spend all my time trying to help her sort through what she is feeling and why she feels that way. I have no problem with her seeing him and yet the only reason I get upset after the visits is the emotional torrent that occurs with her towards me. It's like getting pulled into the ocean by a strong undertow.
