Hey Alice! Missed seeing you around! Sorry to hear difficult child is still acting gfgy.
You already know this but here goes. She has to hit rock bottom and want to change. Nothing you do will change that.
It is not fair to easy child. She deserves a safe home. That includes being able to put her things in her room without having to worry that they will come up missing.
My difficult child treated my easy child that way. My easy child gave me the strength to detach from difficult child. She was doing everything she could to live right and we were all in turmoil with difficult child all the time. He would take anything he wanted from easy child and if she told me he was ugly to her for telling.
My difficult child is gone. He has used all the difficult child buddies he had around here and is last I heard in Atlanta.
I just pray for his safety and for him to run out of people to help him. As long as someone is helping he has no reason to want to change.
You have to take care of yourself and the rest of your family. Your daughter is making the choice to stay in the situations she is in. Hopefully, she will get tired of the fighting and want to get away for good.
