[QUOTE="Tiredoftrying, post: 666341, member: 19510"] I have an adult daughter that has a husband that doesn't want her to have any contact with me at all. The reason for this, is because I have tried to raise her to not be dependent on anyone, but herself. It has taken its toll on me through the years. They were living together until she got pregnant last year. Every time she has come over for the last several years, she hides it from him because she doesn't want to cause a fight. The baby is 4 months old and I have only seen her twice, wasn't allowed to come to the hospital, so I missed out of her life event of the birth of my last grandchild. We have had a strained relationship here and there because her father and I divorced when she was 10 and her dad made her feel guilty also for living with me, so she lies to him about our relationship also. I strongly feel she has some deeply rooted emotional problems, but she will not talk to me about anything at all. When I try, she hangs up on me and will not talk to me for months. When I comment on her facebook posts, she replies to everyone but mine, I text her and if he is home, it is days before I hear back. The pain is almost too much to bear. I am at wits end and am mentally and emotionally exhausted to the point that I ask myself why I even try to have a relationship. Is there anyone else out there who has been through something similar and can give me some advice? [/QUOTE]
