[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 700969, member: 17542"] Oh ksm, just reading the thread, my stomach got all tight. I can only imagine your anxiety. There is no way to "have a real relationship" in a situation like this. I know you love her, but can you create some space and distance---in your own mind---so that you aren't reacting to all of her stuff? Her car-ride revelations and especially her...thinking...about her own life. She is a teenager who is struggling. There is no way it's going to make sense to mature adults. Stay back as much as you can. Just let it all roll on and let her deal with her own life. That is how she will learn. Let us know how you are. [/QUOTE]
