[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 707511, member: 17542"] Weary Mother, bless you. It sounds like your daughter is doing what she needs to do as a grown woman in a tough situation. Figuring it out and taking responsibility. I understand for you, it's hard to hear, and you wish things were better for her. Let her make them better for herself, with you playing the role you identify above---being supportive and caring. Grown people have to solve their own problems. If they aren't able to, they can never really grow up and become an adult. Be there for her---within reason. Focus on yourself and your own life and love her from a distance in order to avoid getting too involved. That is the best way to love our grown adult offspring. [/QUOTE]
