Now that I kicked my 18 year old daughter out, where do I go from here?

[QUOTE="pigless in VA, post: 711202, member: 11832"] Cindy Marie, do you think your daughter would willingly see a therapist? When you write about her, I see a very immature girl attempting to handle some intense adult responsibilities. She appears to be basically a good kid who has chosen to put herself in a bad situation. I think she will find her way out of it, but she may need some outside help to see how bad it is. That help can't really come from you at this point. She obviously wants a lot of contact with you. I worry about the stress that is causing you: listening to all her woes, loving her and then having her in this weird relationship. I don't think I could handle rehashing it with her. If I were in your shoes, I think I would need some emotional distance from the problem. Maybe one way for you to regain some peace in your own life would be to talk to her at a specific time each day. That way she won't feel like you're ignoring her texts. I wouldn't be able to cope with 24/7 texts from her. That keeps you on high alert all the time. You need sanity breaks. :beach: [/QUOTE]
