inky, that situation sounds so hard to be in. Your primary responsibilities are you and your daughter now. Your parents are adults and live their lives the way they choose. You can care about them without rescuing them or doing for them what they can do for themselves.

Your daughter's childhood has an expiration date, so to speak. Do what you need to do to take care of you and to give your daughter a healthy environment to learn and grow and thrive, and to have all the attention and love from you that she needs.
