[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 105997, member: 3419"] Thanks for the info. Actually, talking about what to wear to get a rise out of you is pretty funny. (Sorry, but it sounded cute the way you wrote it. And you handled it very well.) I SO understand how she feels about her mother. If she isn't already seeing a therapist, I would take her to one who can explain to her that her mother is very sick. You can tell her a million times over but unless she hears it from an authority figure, it probably won't sink in. It's possible that her mother does love her but doesn't know how. And it's "okay" to be hurt because those feelings are necessary and valid. The therapist may also be able to come up with-little scenarios to help her mingle with-friends, and deal with-small rejections, and do role playing. For ex., if she's wearing a pink hair ribbon and someone laughs because they like green, she has to learn that it's just a matter of taste, and that the person isn't necessarily rejecting her, totally. Best of luck. [/QUOTE]
