My heart goes out to you......I wish I could come up with something good/constructive/helpful to say.........this must be hideously tough on you but take comfort in knowing you're doing the best you can. Hang in there!

I'm really sorry you have to deal with this.
I had a difficult teen daughter. She grew up and is much better at almost 25 but still struggles in life. It's so hard to see our kids suffer when we know they have options. And love. It sucks.
(((hugs)))

I hope you are able to find her and she's safe. I cannot imagine your worry~ Stay strong. I think I asked this before, but has she been in a long term rehab anywhere??? Prayers

I am so sorry. I don't know what to say as my kids are still little and I have no experience with what you and your family are going through but I have read some of your posts and your strength and love for your daughter are amazing.
Please take care!

I'm so sorry. I pray one day when she's happy and stable that she will see the hell she put you through and know how loved she is.

Oh wow what a hard situation. I have an 18 year old daughter that we have had issues with. Things are some better but now that she's "officially" 18, she's trying to throw that around some and I'm not having it. I hope the situation with Taylor settles down for you but you are doing what you can. Sometimes they are so hell bent on doing what they want that there's little you can do but be there when the situation goes south. Please keep us updated and take care of yourself.

@leowife, my heart is breaking for you.
When my dad had the farm, he had delinquent boys (from Ausable Springs Ranch - Ontario, Canada) come and help him on the farm. Dad knew the director and it was amazing the transformation in the boys after they had been at my parents' place. Not fun working with chicken $h!tt and cleaning the barns, working when harvesting corn, but the meals that my mom & I made for them and that they saw the love within a household and between a husband & wife really transformed them. Dad knew the supervisor. Whoever thought that working on a farm was a reward for having a good week?
Dad always had the toolshed/ tractor garage unlocked and nothing was ever stolen. He even let the boys use the fallow field to drive their bikes/cars and leave them on the farm.
At the wake for my dad, there were about 20 of these young men who came, simply to pay respect to the man who didn't yell at them, but showed them trust, even when sometimes it was doubtful of their trust. (PS: Dad died in 2000, so at least 15 years after his last contact with any of these guys.)
We would bake cookies and send home sandwiches with real roast beef, turkey, chicken and such on home-made buns. This was in the late 60's & thru to about 1985.
I really wish that there were more programmes like this, to help young people to turn around their lives by the action of the people helping, and not always law enforcement.
May you find peace in your decisions, which I truly support. She has made her decisions and must now live with the consequences. I have seen this first hand and it is amazing that one day, a slight lightbulb does shine and starts the process towards a better way of living life. |

I don't mean to be mean at all but I would seriously reconsider putting this kind of stuff on an internet message board. I understand you need support but it's dangerous and foolish to put this kind of personal info out there for anyone to see.
I hope things improve for you.

I am sorry. All the love in the world can't fix some kids, and there is no reason why they are the way they are. I hope that she comes to a realization soon that this is no way to live and decides to get her act together. Honestly, being kicked out by her grandfather may be a blessing. It will certainly make it more difficult for her to continue to live this way.

I am so sorry. Hang in there. Maybe now the grandfather will support your husband and you more now since he's experienced your daughter's behaviours firsthand.
