[QUOTE="Denise2017, post: 712797, member: 21870"] Thank you both very much. Wow I can not believe I found this forum after so many years. I did spend an entire day searching and it was so worth it. I have searched many times before but this time I was blessed. Or ready. This is a very real place and you are extremely wise and caring. I agree that no news is good new when dealing with the difficult child. The list of phrases is very handy because the conversation very easily goes in a bad direction. In addition she can be very manipulative and lead me down a path where trouble happens. I will go with your advice. I still feel guilty but I will learn. I used to say she was like a poem my mother often said... There was a little girl With a little curl Right in the middle of her forehead When she was good she was very, very good But when she was bad she was horrid But when my daughter is "good" she is not very, very good. She is the same, but calmer and charming and I remember the baby and child she was. I did not have a good relationship with my mother so it's very hard for me not to do what I think is "right" which to me means being kind. But I realize that I am not dealing with a normal individual. Thank you all. I am on the journey. [/QUOTE]
