X demands full custody...I'm engaged, Pt 3: Court?

[sleeper]

I seem to be having epiphanies lately averaging one per weekend...

I realized today after the counseling session with my DD she is having a mid-life crisis. Not a true mid-life crisis but the first crisis you're supposed to have when you're a teenager. The one some of our (X)spouses repeated later at mid-life.

It's all there...Life altering event (my engagement to fiancé and DD becoming a "woman" the same month. Anger at the one she loves the most (me, she always was a major "daddy's girl"). The "alien possession" I don't know who she is anymore, stretching the truth, changing makeup styles daily, coldness towards me, says things for shock value to test my reaction. New friends (my X, they act like two teenagers). Avoidance behaviors: Reads constantly (2-3 books weekly, says it takes her to another place). Has become materialistic, likes to shop, complained today that I don't take her on trips. Running away instead of facing issues (she ran from me and now lives with her mother by her choice and support of X). Oh and "boy crazy" (X's words describing her). Did I say boundary testing?

Sound familiar, anyone?

At least there's the silver lining of knowing what to do in this dark cloud.

Nothing.

Oh there's two. She's acting just like X did 7 years ago so I recognize the behaviors.
