[QUOTE="dlgallant, post: 52210, member: 3721"] After having my day start really badly I posted about my daughter difficult child didn't show up at her arraignment. She called 3 hours after she was supposed to be there in tears saying she'd mixed up the days and what could she do to fix this. I'm so tired. I'd be more inclined to help if she'd get out of the living situation she's in and get herself back into counseling. A few hours later I was happy to report some progress and posted the following: On a positive note, my difficult child showed up at my house and called the county atty and district clerk to try and get a new court date. When no one returned her call she used my computer and asked for my help in writing letters. She faxed them asking for a new court date and told them she was ready to cooperate. She did this all on her own, not a single prompt from me. This resulted in: Why are you trying to take responsibility for her actions? She did this. Let it go. I was confused and tried to clear up what I thought was a misunerstanding only to be told why leave your fingerprints all over her decision making so that she can blame everything on you? I'm sorry witzend doesn't approve of either my saddness, my happiness, or my dealings with my daughter. But I'm personally pleased with how far I've come in 2 months. I can now sleep most nights and I'm working with a psychologist on what to do and not do regarding what's best for my daughter. There was no deep psychological meaning in my post title "Where did I take such a wrong turn" It means nothing more than I'm not where I want to be in my life right now. I have enough people disapproving of me, I'm not here to seek out more. [/QUOTE]
