[QUOTE="welcometowitsend, post: 599543, member: 14356"] Battuto - I am so sorry that your daughter (like her dad) is abusing your. You are quite right to think that she may have inherited a personality disorder or mental illness. My understanding is that heredity is at least a 50% factor in developing mental illness or personality disorder. Environment accounts for the rest - but that doesn't just include the home environment it includes all of the child's life experiences. I sympathize with your frustration in getting your daughter help. We tried to get my son treatment while we could but could not get a proper diagnosis and he wouldn't stay on his medications. Counselling was a waste of time for him at that point because all he did was get angry, argue and dismiss anything he was told. Now my hands are tied and I can't do anything for him but wait until he chooses to do it for himself. In the meantime I agree with RE - get help and support for yourself. Become a stronger woman that has healed from the abuse. Become a woman with good and healthy boundaries - this will help your daughter too. And it will help bring some peace into your life. :smile: [/QUOTE]
