Thanks. My daughter came home yesterday after being gone for a week. I told her that my husband and I started talking and were talking about going to counseling. She immediately told me that if he comes back she is going to go live with her grandparents out of state. She didn't even want to listen to any more of the conversation. My husband is not back living here.
When I told him what she said, he said give it time, we'll work it out. He's remaining so calm. Meanwhile my daughter and I are fighting. She says she won't change her mind so matter what I say and she won't go back to living how she was. She and my husband do not get along, simply because neither one of them tries, they won't talk to each other. Before I asked him to leave, she spent all of her time shut in her room. She isn't even willing to see if he will change.
So now, what do I do? How do I choose between my husband and my daughter? If I choose to work on my marriage, my daughter leaves. If I do what my daughter wants, I lose my husband.
Meanwhile, I have thought alot about my relationship with my husband. Basically I was doing things with my daughter and not him. I hung out in her room with her, went shopping with her etc. He and I did nothing together. I don't know if I mentioned it, but she is not his daughter.
