[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 667992, member: 18516"] Welcome Perplexed, How very generous of you to move in with your daughter to help her out. If I may ask, what is it that she is waiting to qualify for? You have already put one year of your life on hold for her and you say she expects you to be there for another year. I don't know that I could do it. I understand you are wanting to help your daughter but if she is treating you without any respect you have to ask yourself if you are willing to put up with that kind of treatment for another year. Okay, if she has weekends off then she has time to shop and cook. She can cook enough on one day to last all week. She could also throw something in a crockpot. I think you are making it to easy for her. Perhaps you can start weaning her off being so dependent upon you. You need to think about yourself and your life. I think it's wonderful that you are willing to help her but there is a fine line between helping and enabling. She is right that you do decide how you feel. Your feelings are valid in regard to how she is treating you. Something else you might consider is going away for a couple of weeks and maybe take her little dog with you since she can't care for it on her own. Hopefully she will see in your absence just how much you have done for her. I hope things work out for you. Please let us know how things are going. ((HUGS)) to you.......................... [/QUOTE]
