[QUOTE="BusynMember1, post: 759698, member: 23706"] Hi. I'm so sorry. I also have a daughter who I don't see and it's horrible. She drinks and smokes pot and don't know what else and has had DUIs. We paid for her to get out.of trouble. Bad idea. She is in her 30s and still the same She is married to a lazy man, much like she is, and their son lives with our other daughter. He has autism but is doing okay. He has been through a lot for a small one. Things did not get better for us until I and husband got.into therapy to learn coping skills and we also joined a twelve step program. If your daughter has a few DUIa most likely she.has a drinking problem. AlAnon could teach you skills and mindsets you never heard before. It was great for us even though it did not help her. The trick is to be good to ourselves even.if our kids struggle and our guilt just makes it worst. If God is.in your life that helps. If not there are still tools you can learn from Al Anon and therapy. Doing this without help, which I was loathe to do, made things much worse for me and the rest of my family. Help helped me so much although my daughter is homeless in another state and won't also get help. We can't control them. We only can control us. We can't tell you what to do, only what worked for us. Sending you hugs and love. [/QUOTE]
