OMGGGG if only you kneww... you remind me of my father. When he was going through depression we were losing lots of money (the disease did that to him). And he felt hopeless and pathetic and a bad protector of the family too.
As his daughter I just wanted to see him smile again, nothing else mattered! I didn't care about the money or anything.
From a daughters prospective, don't worry about it.
One more thing- I know it might suck to hear this but there's nothing you can do (as a daughter myself). If YOU step in and "deal with it", she'll feel like she has to hide behind her father and feel worse about herself. I mean this with humor- but if she's a teenager, you're gonna be uncool no matter how cool you are!
Just teach her the power of forgiving such a mean girl- that's the best lesson that can come out of this.
