[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 716023, member: 18516"] So very proud of you!!! You handled this perfectly. First I think it's important that you contacted the crisis hot line so she can be evaluated. That being said, if your daughter is like my son, she will use that line as a ploy to get you to cave into her demands. The fact that she will be evaluated should send a message to her that if she makes a claim of harming herself you will contact a crisis center. I remind myself that I have worked hard and long to be able to take a much needed vacation. I remind myself that I will not allow my difficult child to hold my emotions hostage. I remind myself that my sons drama and chaos are his alone. I remind myself that no amount of money will ever save my son. I remind myself that enabling and giving into my son does more harm than good. Mcdonna, you go on your trip and you ENJOY yourself. :beach: [/QUOTE]
