[QUOTE="chrissey, post: 617370, member: 17570"] Thank you to everyone that has taken the time to reply. Your comments have been very helpful and its soooo nice to know that we are not alone, even though it has felt that way for a long time. we are taking all you have said on board and we feel empowered to move forward with our lives. We have detached ourselves from our daughter as this has been a survival need for us. We can't however be without those girls in our lives. They are our world and we adore them. we feel my daughter does need help outside the family but unless she wants help we are hitting head against the wall. She is withdrawn herself from almost everyone outside her own house. This xmas was one of the worse we have had. daughter started becoming unreasonable just before xmas. we arranged last year to have the girls for xmas morning, we have never done that and invited them. she said it was a great idea. i mentioned it again just before xmas this year and she said "no not now, we spending it with boyfriends parents" it broke our hearts. then when we tried to arrange a time to give the girls thier presents, every day we mentioned was suddenly not convenient for her. this went on for a while. then the one day she did say yes she changed it at the last minute and spent it with my mother who she hasnt seen for over a year and just turned up. anyway its all over now but this is why we have to back away.
