[QUOTE="MaggieDawn70, post: 456783, member: 12702"] Hi Nomad, Yes, Planned Parenthood for as long as possible! We can keep her on our insurance until she's 26, barring a change in life circumstances such as marriage, and I intend to do so. I cannot imagine what type of mom she might be and I don't want to have a kid go through that possibility. My mom and daughter are very similar and my childhood was downright scary sometimes. My mom cares for no one but herself and it's eerie how well she fools people into thinking otherwise. Unfortunately, I don't think daughter will be headed to counseling any time soon. If any of us (bio dad, me, her stepdad) even try to bring it up, there is h*ll to pay for months. She knows the insurance pays for outpatient at 90%, 20 visits a year. Letting her know that is the best we can do. Going to therapy and taking medication would be ideal, or close to it. My family, frankly, was a mess to begin with. My daughter's antics only added to the garbage already there. So I'm not missing much by not being in contact. I don't like being lied about to them but I've come to expect no less from daughter. husband has been there most of her life so he knows first hand what she's capable of. His opinion and support, far more important to me than that of my nutty family. My ex, daughter's dad, also knows.....we're not terribly close but at least there is another person who can relate. Thanks for your response....lots of good advice. [/QUOTE]
