[QUOTE="Snow White, post: 703760, member: 355"] Hi and welcome, sandyr. I am so sorry to hear that you are in this situation but glad that you have found this site. There will be others along soon who will offer more advice and support. Your daughter is an adult and it sounds like you and your husband have done everything possible to assist her. I believe that you did the right thing in calling the police and getting a restraining order. It is not right that your younger daughter should be subjected to physical abuse in your own home. You are all at risk. Your daughter has been doing criminal activities - physical assault, car theft and check theft. I would imagine the money/check theft is for drugs. It is heartbreaking when our children do things that we would never think them capable of. This is emotionally and physically draining for you and your family. We have been in a similar situation and worry that our daughter will come back and break into the house. We've upgraded our security system and done as much as we can to secure our home. Your home should be a safe haven. Perhaps her arrest would lead to some drug/mental health rehab resources. That would be a good thing. She is an adult and needs to take responsibility for her actions. I hope that while she is away from your house that you and your family can find some time to do something nice - even if it is just to go out for dinner or watch a movie. Please keep coming back to this forum and posting. There is an excellent article on detachment at the top of the posts - it really helps. [/QUOTE]
