I'm so glad for you, I was thinking of you all night last night, wishing I could be there for support. This is good, see, she didn't rage. I'm so glad for you. Amazing, our surprise when they dont' do what we expect. It's a nice feeling. Hang in there, stay tough. Keep on her, don't let her try her mush on you to change anything, or ask to do something another time, instead of what you have listed. My daughter tried that a few times in the beginning, I changed my tune from what I would have done in the past, that is to say okay, but make sure you do it then. I would just say no, do it when it says to be done and it will be done. If you put it off once, you will keep putting it off, then it will never get done. I wish you luck with your son too, that she lightens up with him. This is such good news for you. Hope it all works out. DebbieL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 Thank you for your thoughts and prayers, I could feel them as I was driving home to have my face off with my daughter. When I arrived home, she was in a good mood which was surprising because she hasn't been for about 2 weeks. I was relieved because when she is irritable she just won't listen. We went in my room to talk, away from my 13 year old and I let her know I loved her. I told her my issue was that I was losing my self respect because of her lashing towards me and I wasn't going to let that happen any more. I explained the contract and the steps I'm willing to take to get my home and respect back including going to court and getting an order to get her thrown out. I WAS SHOCKED, SHE DIDN'T RAGE!!!!! She walked out of my room and left the house. Of course she hadn't read the contract yet and I let her know she needed to. She came back about a half hour later, came into my room, took the contract and went into her room. Of course she had a nasty look on her face. She didn't talk to me for several hours but eventually came into the kitchen and stated that she was coming to talk to me as an adult. It was freaky. She said this was serious and I acknowledged this. She stated that she could live with it except for one demand which was to stop picking on her brother. After discussing it we revised it to state not to overstep boundaries to damage his self esteem. I could live with that. She signed it, put it on the side of the refrigerator and for the rest of the evening hung out with her brother and I in the living room. While this went better than I thought I am waiting for the other shoe to drop. I hope it doesn't but I am quite aware of her mood changes and know there is a rough road ahead. Thanks again for your signs of support, I know they will be there when the road does get rough. --- cascorsam@... wrote: > Hope all went well last night with your daughter. > > Jean > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been > removed] > > __________________________________ Yahoo!

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Yes, I will " bite my tongue " . I spent today, saying, " hmm " , " uh huh " , etc. Oh yes, " it's your decision " and " I know this is difficult " also came up in conversation. It is her battle, her life and though I would have put an end to this if he were MY husband, I guess she loves him and doesn't want to let go just yet. I think HE needs psychiatric help--------he has some serious demons going on inside him and has for as long as she has known him from when he was 15. Sometimes I wonder if he is not BP?

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Jean, I know this is hard but if he keeps up with the drugs he will probably be in jail again soon. You did really well today and deserve a big hug. I know how hard it is to not tell them what you really think - been there - done that. cascorsam@... wrote: Yes, I will " bite my tongue " .

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2006 Report Share Posted April 6, 2006 You " did good " Jean, you could probably use a bottle of tums now. It's very difficult to detach when you are a strong woman, it's physically exhausting. cascorsam@... wrote: Yes, I will " bite my tongue " .
