@Former-Member you never have to apologise to greenpea xxxxx

[Appleblossom]

@Former-Member You have described her situation more fully and it is tragic.  There is still hope though. I think you do have to be firm and not lose resolve. However if cast upon her own resources she will need to make decisions, more serious than whether to accept or delete someone on social media.  

As parents we try and encourage good socialisation but popularity contests are silly.  She is very intelligent I hope she eventually realises and finds a better path. It is such a difficult position for you, but sometimes we need to know how to do tough love.

They say that the frontal lobes only really mature by about 25, so I hope she comes to her senses by then.

@Former-Member Just like we are all different, so the young people's struggles to find their way in this world are unique.  I feel for you, your brother and nephew.  He was very lucky he only had 5 days in prison.  They can be horrendous places and harden people.

  Hi @Former-Member & @greenpea 

Hope you have better days in the coming week.

Hi again @Appleblossom@greenpea@Former-Member@Former-Member@outlander - I have just sat down, or should I say lying down in bed for the first time since this afternoon. I turned the house upside down and thoroughly cleaned the top half of the house, scrubbed floors, bathrooms, cupboards and disposed of things we didnt need etc. It was hard work but it looks great.  Tuesday I will do the bottom half as tomorrow I have to see my solicitor, then my doctor and also do some food shopping, so I won't have time to clean. 

I just read all your posts - they were so uplifting......I have a lot to say in reply to each and just wanted you to know that I will tomorrow early evening - it will be my first chance to go online. The support from each of you here has been extraordinary and is helping me through this. It's been wonderful. My daughter's mood seems to have lifted and she is being reasonable  - she really is exhibiting mood disorder as they change so rapidly. I also think she is delusional.

@Appleblossom - she is bright and it is tragic how her life has turned out. It's not like she wasn't warned - she will not listen. You are right about jail hardening people, this I am scared off. But I can't save her, I have tried for years. There just is nothing more I can do. She needs to learn to control her rage (part of her Borderline personality disorder) and stay away from abusers and the wrong people - if she did those two things jail would not be a threat for her. But she chooses not to do the latter - and I can't get through. She doesn't seem to care how it effects her parents either. I look forward to hearing how your week goes when you get a chance to come back online. Will be thinking of you ❤️ xx

@Former-Member - your nephew sounds similar to my daughter - the company they choose to keep is their downfall. Is there anyway the girlfriend of your nephew can be investigated? It could be one way of getting her out of the picture for awhile to give your nephew a fighting chance. Would like to talk more about what you posted tomorrow - thank you for being there and for your understanding, it has really been helping me through this 💖

@greenpea - thankyou my friend for your kindness

@outlander - the painting project sounds wonderful - would love to see pictures of your progress. What exactly are you painting?

@Former-Member - I hope tomorrow is better for you - I do know that "waking up to a nightmare" ex

erience. Not good. I know it can be hard to talk about sometimes but please don't feel you are being a burden if you need to talk. We are all here for each other and you are never a burden. You are a friend.

I will try and get some shut eye now as I have a big day ahead. Will pop back on tomorrow. Please keep the posts coming as they are really helping me by uplifting my spirits. Knowong I am not alone and others truly care means a lot. Our chats have been great and I think we communicate and connect so well. Quite special. Sweet dreams my friends 😴😘xx

Wow @Former-Member well done! What a productive day and ita good when we can see the progress too. Tomorrow sounds like another busy day but i hope you can find abit of me time.
Im glad your daughters mood has lifted even for a short while i hope it continues though.

I tried to start my art but ended up having a meltdown and threw it in the bin. Will try again another time. I wanted to do a 3 piece set but i dont know now. Might have to work on technique abit more because i get alot of white streaks because of the consistency of the paint or maybe ita the brush.


Goodnight loveley. I hope tomorrow ia ok for you and not to tough. 💖💖
