[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 270832, member: 3907"] Dara, I agree with the advice that Klmno and StepTo2 have given you. It will be painful and it will likely cause exactly the big blowout you've been fearing, but I think it needs to happen. I can understand your daughter being confused, and seeking out people in similar situations for advice and company. But can you be sure of the kind of information she's been getting from these online forums? With your daughter's history of abuse, she might have a lot of confusion about her sexual identity, and might need help from a therapist or other person to sort out her feelings. I don't know that an online companion site where people are looking for relationships is the right environment for your daughter to figure that out. If she's interacting with people who already know for certain that they are gay, she may be pressured into taking a stand one way or another, and then have trouble retreating from it later if she realizes that this is just a phase. I also wonder about the 19-year-old. Does she really think it's acceptable to be taking up with a 14-year-old girl? Around these parts, that qualifies as statutory rape, and I wouldn't be surprised if the laws are similar where you are. Sending a coat of polish for your Warrior Mom armour. Trinity [/QUOTE]
