[QUOTE="Acacia, post: 728910, member: 19832"] Newstart, you have shown courage in changing and taking difficult though necessary steps to value yourself. I have found that more and more I am able to set boundaries to protect myself from my adult daughter's abuse, but that doesn't stop the sorrow I feel or the questioning sometimes. Because I refuse to enable or tolerate the abuse, my daughter cut all ties with her and my grandchildren - so far 6 months. Though it hurts, I can live with that because I refuse to be used and treated badly anymore. I know that I would not allow anyone not related to me to treat me badly, so why would I ever let my children do so. You are doing the right thing by detaching. Kudos to you. [/QUOTE]
