[QUOTE="WhereIsTheLight, post: 39445, member: 3673"] jbrain: Yup, they are manipulative little so-and-sos, aren't they. I have no doubt difficult child has been regaling the Commune with tales of neglect and abuse on my part in order to gain sympathy for her plight. I'm trying to not care what she tells people about me. On the other hand, when she was acute, I got tired of people telling me that I was a good mother, doing the right thing, and that she'd do better when she grew up a bit. Well, the tantrums did get less intense and less frequent, but her disrespect and lack of motivation and freeloading didn't. If I was such a good mother, why wasn't it working???? I did my best with what I had at the time. I could have done better, and I could have done a hell of a lot worse. Thanks for all your good wishes. If all goes well, I may have to change my login name. [/QUOTE]
