[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 715004, member: 1550"] She lives under your roof. Your house/your rules. I dont allow any smoking in my house. Period. None of my grown kids live with me...including an autistic son. If your daughter wants independence she can get a job, move out and stop breaking the law. You dont "make" her do anything. She, like many here, is blaming bad, rude, disrespectful, childish behavior on you, but that is untrue. Its a form of gaslighting. And she us abusing you, just like a spouse would. Your daughter will probably turn out to be very street smart and will find ways to survive on the streets. She has a choice to live with you and follow your rules but she wants a free ride PLUS no rules. Unreasonable. So SHE is choosing to leave and trying to scare you in the bargain. Not nice at all. If drugs are involved, I recomnend Al Anon for you plus your own therapist so that you can learn to detach from her choices and put your own life first. The only person you have control over is you. You CAN change how you react to this daughter, but nothing you say or do will make her better if she doesnt want to get better. Stand strong. Hoping you can find some peace today. You matter a lot. Your own life is precious. Celebrate YOU. And value your husband. He will be there for you until the end. Your daughter is pretty much just about herself. Nurture your marriage before all else.
