[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 715856, member: 1550"] This is sadly a new and common problem. It is considered ok to dump your parents and usually the parent has no idea why. Do you have an ex who trashes you? That is one big reason. Another common reason is if we try to stay overly engaged in their lives even when they are adults....giving unasked for advice, opinions, calling every day, criticizing, helicoptering...etc. Our adult kids need space and dont want our constant feedback. Some adult kids are just not very nice and hurt us on purpose to punish us and they wont tell us what we did. There is usually a long history of the child being in control. I would leave her alone and see what happens. Dont beg or act needy. Some adult kids feel satisfied seeing us beg. Yes, they do. Keep your self respect so that your daughter doesnt see you as her doormat. That wont help. Have you ever been in therapy to learn how to love and care for yourself? [/QUOTE]
