[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 674070, member: 18516"] Welcome mommaRN, ((HUGS)) for you hurting heart!! I am glad you found us here. You will find much needed support from us Warrior Parents. There is a very good article on detachment at the top of the PE forum. Please take some time to read it as it's really helpful. You have nothing to feel guilty about. Nothing, Zero, Nada, Zilch!! Our difficult adult children are counting on us to feel guilty as a way to manipulate us into "helping" them. I use the term "helping" loosely as there is nothing we can do for them that will help them but we can do plenty to enable them. I know how hard it is to have such ugliness from your child. Been there, done that, have the T-Shirt. I had to stop all communication with my son for a while because of his verbal abuse. Again, your daughter is counting on making you feel guilty with all of her venom. Don't buy into it. Your daughter is 27 and needs to live her own life. She may not see it this way but a loving thing you can do is supply her with names and numbers of shelters. I have always liked the saying "[I]Poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part" [/I]This is very fitting with our difficult adult children. You are doing the right thing by telling her no, that she cannot come live with you. :staystrong::notalone: [/QUOTE]
