[QUOTE="ksm, post: 749586, member: 12511"] Another great thing to read is right on this website. You posted on General Parentimg, but click on Forums, then click on Parent Emeritus. With in the first 4 topics/posts you will see an article on detachment. Read it. Then read it everyday until you've taken it to heart! You don't need to have closure with your daughter, or even tell her what you are doing. You can be loving, and detatching at the same. Remember to contact your child at appropriate times/holidays. Mail a card, offer to take to lunch. I'm sure they will make the effort if it has involved receiving gifts or money in the past. But then, step back, and leave long gaps in calling and texting. If she reaches out, be pleasant, but not desperate! Tell her how happy you are to hear from her. Sound busy! Don't let her believe that you are just waiting around to hear from her! Ksm [/QUOTE]
