Hi Everyone, It‘s been a while since I last wrote. Adult daughter has her own place and is a mother of a 2 year old now. I put her out along with my granddaughter in December of 2021 after another bad blowout between us. She was being disrespectful, having tantrums, slamming doors, not...

Thank you Nomad. I really needed that hug for today. Was told today that “I’m on punishment“ for my actions and that I will NOT see, talk to or hear from my grandchild until I‘ve learned my lesson I about a year or so. I’m hurt beyond words but the venom she spit today keeps me grounded...

HI KSM, How do you detach with love when are constantly being blamed for everything wrong in your adult child’s life and when you are constantly being talked to like trash and being totally disrespected?

Hi Acacia, I am currently in the teaching profession and a few years from retiring myself. Nice to hear from fellow teacher! I’ve done most of the things you mentioned for my daughter and then some and it’s never enough ever! I’m sure I’ve aged 10 years in the last year from all her drama...

Hi KSM, My grand daughter will be 15 months on Saturday. Yes, it hurts more than words can say but it’s been heading this way between us for the past year. I’m tired and I need peace in my home. She is an adult and I’m no longer legally responsible for her is my new mantra. I have found a...

So day 2, I get an email at work that seemed sincere and somewhat optimistic about my daughter returning to get more her and my grand child’s things. I responded likewise with a positive tone and outlook on us having space and time to heal and that what I know for sure is that we can’t live...

Wow. Thanks for sharing. Going to get help to fully detached. I’m very tired and going thru similar situations with my own daughter and grandchild. ~Skool Teacher

Hi everyone, It’s been a while. My teenage daughter is now a 26 year old mother. She came back to my home October 2019 and hasn’t made any progress to be self sufficient or move out. The only thing she has added to her life is a child. She is very disrespectful, ungrateful and since the...

Hello Everyone, It's been a long while since I've written and I'm back. Sitting here in tears still not understanding why my adult daughter (21) can't just do what she needs to do to be a responsible adult. Last time I wrote, she was living with some lady that kept calling me reporting on my...

Thanks Albatross. I appreciate your kind words. Have a good day yourself.

Thank you COM. I needed and receive what you said.

Will do RN0441! I have so much to do today and I'm tired from traveling all day yesterday and now this. I'm ok and I guess I need to just get up and start my day. thanks for your kind words.

Thanks SWOT for your response. I really like the idea of giving her a few options and having them ready to give her IF she arrives to clearly let her know home is not an option. She doesn't have keys or knows any of the codes for the house, garage, or alarm. She can't come inside my home...

SRTL, thanks for your response. It's now 8:32am and she hasn't shown up. Which leads me to believe this is a feud between her and her ex and she was trying to prove a point to him or who knows. They have broken up but she still wants to be with him thus the crux of a lot of her still not...

I just got into an argument with my husband about my daughter again. She called at little before 5am this morning stating she was coming back home because she was being put out of the lady's house that she was staying with. I told her to figure out something because coming home was NOT an...

Copa... Agreed! Well said! Amen! We all want the best for our adult children and it is expected at some point that they will become responsible adults. Some get this sooner than others and some don't get it ever and if we've done the best we can and they flounder, we (parents) have to be ok...

Amen!!!

My heart goes out to you... My child's biodad killed himself as well. No warning, no threats.

Agreed on the suicide threat GoingNorth. It's silly and it's a play on your emotions for attention. I've been through 3 fake suicide attempts. It's a waste of time, energy and resources. It's draining and infuriating that someone that loves you would play with your emotions like that...

Wow! Your situation is very similar to mine with my 21 year old daughter. I truly feel your pain and I'm wrestling with some of the same feelings but the blatant disrespect and her seeming to want to fight me pretty much did it for me. I can't do anything else but PRAY for her. They come...
