[QUOTE="Just-a-mom, post: 623366, member: 17800"] Iso appreciate and so agree with what each of you say. I sit here and think about my daughters upper middle class up bringing and yes there were times she was yelled at and consequenced but for the life of me I know she had a good childhood and upbringing. Our other four children seem unscathed through their childhoods... I feel like in her own mind she believes the garbage she spews. In any case, I am totally done giving her money. That being said, I have to deal with the fact she is driving a car registered to me and that I pay the insurance on... Lol why can't that car just break down? I don't know why I have guilt, I guess all moms have guilt. I did my best, and my best was good. Yes, I have been thinking I need some counselling ... Have done that a few times in my life and it works well. I love what I read in here.. Some of the things stick in my mind... Like I'm not responsible for the choices my adult child makes. How do you handle the lying? Most of what she says is just not true. She messages me today and said she hadn't eaten all day and grandpa said she ate an hour ago... Small lies, big lies... Oh well. She is mad at me now so likely I won't hear from her for awhile. The other four kids are coming for dinner this week. My impulse is to invite difficult child although usually she doesn't come to such things when invited. I don't know, I don't want her to feel shunned or banned, but don't want her to be the Center of attention if she does come. Maybe I will just let it rest and it will be what it will be. Tomorrow is another day. Sent using ConductDisorders mobile app [/QUOTE]
