I am so tired of dealing with SD and BM. It has been a long hard 12 years. SD is now 16 , flunking school, doing drugs, drinking and having sex. Her mother sanctioned her missing over 20 days of school.
DH got a call out of the blue tonight from SD. We thought it had something to do with a package that DH sent her that they had made 3 delivery attempts. Nope. It was 30 minutes of chatting about movies and laughing then the bombshell. "I don't want to see you this summer".
Damn. It was going so well. DH blew up. He told her she wasn't mature enough with all the drinking, drugs and flunking she is doing to make decisions like that. It turned into a fight.
She said that her mom could take her to the airport but she didn't have to get on the plane. Double Damn. She figured it out. DH said he would fly down there and put her on the plane himself. She had all the excuses in the world. "I want to work, I want to be with my mom...."
I'm tired. Our money has gone to this girl. I think about ways to help her constantly. I just want to fix my house and have a family of my own.
We have 2 years left, assuming SD graduates highschool. Maybe then I can have what I deserve. I love her and I still worry about her but it is becoming really difficult. It seems like she is becoming her mom. Sad.
I would love any advice. I don't think there is any out there except to keep busy and keep letting her know we love her.
Sorry about the whining. I know there is much more difficult things in this world to deal with.
