[QUOTE="College kids mom, post: 709694, member: 21584"] I have a college age daughter that is very gifted. A blessing to be sure. But she treats me like I have the plague and my husband like gold. I do everything for her in school, loans, car, add money to her account, but she doesn't even say goodbye when she hangs up the phone. If she talks to me it is curt, short and snotty. It really hurts. My husband can talk to her and it's just the opposite. I love her deeply and am very proud of her but it really is difficult to understand and deal with. I was the one that has always been there for her as her Dad worked a lot of hours and wouldn't come to school functions or church functions. I know this is minimal compared to most of the stories I have read on here but I just don't know how to deal with her and how to handle the rejection. [/QUOTE]
