[QUOTE="Nandina, post: 762009, member: 23742"] Busy, I think this is a good idea. Just yesterday a friend of mine and I had a lengthy conversation about her daughter’s seeming lack of interest in her, not having her over other than for the obligatory holidays, rarely calls, acts like she’s put out when my friend calls her…although they are not totally estranged. The friend has been considering just cutting her daughter off, she has been so hurt. This was only one of many times I have spoken with her about the same issue. Her daughter just doesn’t seem to care. I talked my friend into getting some therapy to better deal with it. Her 41 year old daughter blames her for everything (even though raising this kid was no walk in the park!) and it has affected my friend’s confidence and self-esteem. I like the anonymity here as opposed to a Facebook group too. [/QUOTE]
