[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 751004, member: 15032"] Welcome Heart Broken: We all love our kids to the moon and back here. This isn't about not loving them. It's about loving ourselves too. Is your granddaughter's father in the picture? Either way her treatment of you and her dad is very abusive and since she will not change, YOU have to change. The first step is by coming to this site and getting your story down on paper. Then it becomes real. We all can see that you are a kind and loving mother but your help is not helping your daughter at all. You don't say if you suspect drug or alcohol abuse but I do agree that her behavior seems very harsh and typical of either. I am not sure if you ever had a good relationship with her but I for one feel she is best out on her own. She needs to work full time and support HER children. You won't live forever so she needs to learn how to be independent. She is a grown woman. Keep posting and reading. It will help give you strength. Take what you want and leave the rest. I thought people were harsh at first and that "we" were different but I quickly realized that "we" were like everyone else. Every story is different but their is a ribbon that runs through them all of our adult children mistreating us or themselves and our desire to save them. Please see a therapist that can help you set firm boundaries with your daughter. She needs them as much as you do for her own growth! [/QUOTE]
