Quit talking to your W. You two have nothing to talk about. Seriously. Get a schedule for the daughter and you don't need to speak to her. You get hung up on everything she says and does and you get dragged into crazyland with her. Don't talk to her for your own sanity. It will help you and it will kill her.
I can't believe you're being sympathetic to her over this problem she should never have gotten into in the first place.
Not sympathetic. Someone needs to take care of D4. Like I said earlier, she deserves this. I just haven’t told her as much.
What part of my dialogue in the last two days showed you that I was doing the things you mentioned? I kept it short and businesslike. I didn’t say that it will be ok. I definitely did not feel sorry for her. I am not talking for the sake of conversation.
But I will not be outright cold to her and twist the preverbial knife. I am not going to set that kind of example for my D4. Sorry but not sorry.
