[QUOTE="Acacia, post: 746873, member: 19832"] I am sorry that you have given up so much of your life for your daughter. I am sure your grandchildren are the better for it, but I echo what others here have said. Whatever life you have left - if you want it to be meaningful for you and your husband - must be claimed by you. Your daughter is unlikely to ever put you ahead of her own dysfunctional needs. Sadly, my 38 year old difficult daughter disowned me a year ago because I wouldn't keep rescuing her. She won't let me see my 2 grandchildren. I am heartbroken, but unwilling to be captive to her demands. I am fully committed to setting boundaries and living life fully. Taking as good care of yourself as others is not selfish. Keep posting.
