I have a 27 year old Daughter who is a RPN. Two years ago at the age of 25..she was not paying me rent, was giving all her money to deadbeat bf and in general just being a spoiled brat. At the same time time my marriage was coming to an end, my youngest son was going to college against my wishes to Iowa, and I was running out of steam.
i told my daughter it was time to grow up and move on her own.
Wow who told me to do that??
She hated me, How could I throw her out? Where was she supposed to get money from....remember the girl is a nurse!!!!
She found a place, but had no money for first and last...asked her dad..ya right...of course he didnt help (he never did), so she sold a$4000.00 ring I had given her for $375.00!!!
The girl didn't speak to me for two months!
I extended the olive branch and made contact.
We now speak, she even took me to lunch last week.
She still will throw out there how I threw her out...but its me she calls when she needs help, whether its food or whatever.
I felt she needed to grow up...I had her at the age of 27, the age she is now.
Your daughter will need you sooner than you will need her...she will come around.
Stand strong and dont back down, she will see the light...it may take some time, but it will happen.
I'm in Whitby if you need to talk pm me, you can call me I will send my number.
Hold your head up sweetie, it will all work out.... |
