Hard to Know: It is difficult to give you guidance on this without knowing more specifics in terms of your current age and how you are doing at this time. Having interaction with your father could help you continue on your way towards being freed from your past, but there can be risks. It would be good for you to discuss this situation with a therapist. Focus on a decision that will promote your overall health.
