[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 664687, member: 1550"] How old is she? Was she always a problem? I think she is probably very angry at you for controlling her life even though it helped her in the end. We take these chances, even when we mean so well, when we take matters into our own hands. The other person, depending on personality, can feel a lot of hostility that she was controlled even though you meant well. What options do you feel you have? Are you in therapy for support and learning to make sense of the situation and to learn coping skills? This sounds heartbreaking but you can't force your daughter to see you if she doesn't want to. You can still learn to live a happy life...it sounds as if she was trying to get you to pay for her love. There are people like that, even sometimes our beloved children. We can't change them, only ourselves... Hugs. [/QUOTE]
