Well all 3 of my kids live with their dad because when we were going threw our divorce I couldn't take care of them. I tried to get them back, and still try to get them back, but it's a no go. My ex can not stand me. I have tried to do everything possible to avoid conflict with him. You know I don't say anything degrading about him to my kids, but he does this with me. So has my ex's in laws. I think that my daughter disrespects me because of this. One time she was just upset, and called me a worthless b**ch, because I was just trying to clam her down when she was upset with her grandma. She's hung up on me, and her friends that I have spoke to tell me that she tells them some very mean things about me, and then her friends tell me that I'm nothing like my daughter has said. I'm part responsible to. I'm not going to sit here and act like I'm prefect because I'm not. I did take her to my PDOC and my Dr. told me that kids with anxiety(my Dr. said she has this) act out in anger. She did come to live with about a month and a half ago, and that bf she has now, along with her cousin who also wanted her there made a major influence on her decision to live with me. Well it could be because of the drug use. My daughter tells me she isn't on them now, but you can't believe everything she says. She also told me that she has a job now, but I would need to see in order to believe it. This year here has been diffucult for everyone including her. When she texts me I don't say anything negative to her. I just ask a lot of questions about what she does everyday, and try to make some suggestions about school and work. I just say positive things to her. You know I'm doing everything possible that I can do. I just feel like I'm in a no win situtation.
