two adult daughters have not got along for many years, too much competition involving their kids. I keep trying to fix this and it is causing me grief. neither one is willing to budge and it bothers me greatly

I'm betting the competition was going on long before it became about their kids.

Know it's hard but at this point in life they just have to figure it out themselves & we have to try our hardest to accept that their behaviors are their choice & leave it to them to resolve IF THEY WANT TO. That's harder to do than trying to fix but easier on us when we accept their choice

Want to welcome you to PC hope you get the support here you are looking for

You will always be an outsider to them, thus there is not much you can do for them.

Hello gramma: Well... I'm 68. But I don't have kids to worry about. My personal thinking on this, however, is that it's time to let the kiddies work things out for themselves. You deserve some rest.

I see this is your first post here on PC. So... to PsychCentral… from the Skeezyks! May the time you spend here be of benefit.

PsychCentral is a great place to get information as well as support for mental health issues. The more you post, & reply to other members’ posts, the more a part of the community you will become. Plus there are social groups you can join & chat rooms where you’ll be able to connect with other PC members in real time (once your first 5 posts have been reviewed & approved.) Lots of great stuff! So please keep posting!

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
