You are between a rock and a hard place here T. Teens of that age are natural rebel entities. Remember when we had that age. It seems your D’s rebelliousness is focused on W...then you have W’s rebelliousness...
Just be there for your D14. Don’t pressure her too much about having a R with her mother now. Let time calm the waters.
You need to be the lighthouse T. Be proud of that. Sure your D is seeing your light. If anyone else sees it it’s not your matter any more.
Keep shining T
thanks nef and more power to you as well.
Looking through D14’s eyes, i can see that she’s giving up hope that WW would be able to see the lighthouse. everyday i ask her if WW has texted her, the answer is always “what do you think?”. but i always encourage her that it will be better, we will both come out of this sitch better people.
i can put a handle on her rebelling,i would be lost, is if she starts to do something like harming herself. god forbid she doesn’t go that far, hence the IC really helps her out.
