    Sick of my Adult Daughter

    So torn - need guidance

    I logged on today as I'm at my wits end with my BiPolar (BP) 36 year old daughter. She makes up illnesses about my grandsons so she doesn't have or face anything and manipulates the world at round her through the BS. She hardly ever sends them to school and I think they might finally be onto her. I hope...

    starting a new life

    I am in 100% agreement about this generational mindset. Everyone's so precious. I wonder if the baby boomers created it but I don't think I contributed to it. My son was visiting for a couple of weeks and he was really angry at my daughters behaviour and told her that if she's didn't stop this...

    starting a new life

    Our journeys do Sou DSL similar. Do you ever wonder what may have contributed and/or have you come to terms with overwhelming feelings of guilt? Everybody tells me I'm not to blame. Even my ex husband, but sometimes I just wrack my brain over the past and wonder if things had been different...

    starting a new life

    Mamacat, I wrote a letter of amends to my daughter 15 years ago for her 21st birthday. The same stuff was going on with her then. It's been going on a long time. I'm sure she used it for toilet paper and never referred to it or mentioned forgiveness. I guess she thought she couldn't hold me...

    starting a new life

    For me it's one breath at a time. I'm just full of sadness and disbelief. I wasn't raised in a perfect household but I was taught to be loyal to your family and stay close. I'm 57 am doing I'm still every close to my siblings. My daughter is 36. I was divorced when she was 8 and I probably had...

    Missing my grandchildren

    I know this is an old thread but my issues are exactly like yours. I can't believe it - its as if you can see my life. The therapist was right all those years ago. My daughter is 36 and I've struggled, seriously struggled, for at least 20 years with her. Now with grandchildren and an idiot for a...

    Advice please

    I seem to be in a similar situation. This is the first time I have decided to cut off my daughter (after she said she was cutting me off first mind you). I decided this time I'm not going to buy into it and I haven't spoken to her in 3 weeks. I normallly have my 2 grandsons in my life once or...

    I'm a failure

    This thread has given me hope in 2 ways. One that I, not the only one that doesn't want their difficult adult child in their life anymore (unless dramatic changes are demonstrated). I've spent 36 years trying to get it right and now I'm learning that for the past 20 I've been an enabler. My...
