I really relate to what you say here. Not sure how to get around this obstacle. I have this problem with my b/f child, a 21 yr old brat spoiled by her father. She hates me and tears me down constantly with rude words and negative thoughts and her faces.....she makes faces at me all the time...yeah you would think she was 5 not going on 22.....she yells at me at the top of her lungs..."I HATE YOU!!" don't know how to deal with this madness that she has...and she is tearing down everything I try to recover...am so frustrated...I just sit in bedroom and cry. Sometimes I feel there is no way out. I really need to get out of here but cant right now. I am holding on by threads most days. I have to wait to see surgeon and get back surgery and then rehab, before I can make any plans for my life. B/f does love me but its not enough, he has always put his kids first...which I understand...but at 22 and 24 I think he should be done with their baby ways....I hate me today...but that's normal.
