[QUOTE="TheWalrus, post: 706392, member: 19905"] My relationship with my daughter has deteriorated to the point of not having one at this point. It has deteriorated over the years, but not like it is now - no contact. Were she to call me and ask to stay, or even just call, I would be incredibly nervous, sad, anxious, hopeful, fearful - you name it. So I completely understand your churning emotions. But my daughter has a way of disappearing and reappearing, acting as though no time has passed and she has never said or done the things she has. There were times it made me a little crazy. Did she feel nothing? Did she believe that as my daughter, it was acceptable for her to treat us the way she did and we were to just accept her when she came back? Did she feel no remorse? Sadness? Worry? Did she not care for us at all? I cannot imagine doing the things she has done, but if I did, I would feel so ashamed and that I had to earn that trust and acceptance. It seems this is a strand I see over and over here with our children. I pray that this is not the case for you, and that you are able to come to a place of peace with your daughter and let go of your worries for her. Please keep us updated. [/QUOTE]
