My Twenty Year Old Daughter Not Happy With Me!

[hensleyll]

yes they do and it eally huts well things are better i suggest or let her make all the calls i explained to her that i did not want to raise her kid i ave a life of my own,i like being able to just get in car with my husband and go!

I get that sometimes with my son too. I think the best way to deal with it is just to talk to them about it.

Maybe something else is bothering her.

Is it comforting to know that someday she might have her own 20 year old daughter?  I definitely appreciate my parents
more because I've had the opportunity to walk in their shoes.

Hang in there!

 

Sincerely,
Sherry

ive had many people tell me how to raise my daughter, and i didnt like  it.

Well as we all know when it comes to our children they hold a special place in our hearts , and can also drive us up the wall!! But if someone ever commented on your parenting skills or lack there of EVERYONE knows that they would kinda flip out on the person for making such a comment, no matter how much it had good intention behind it. She'll learn and understand later on in life. Just be there as a shoulder for her. Doing that alone does mean alot.

Well Thats What I Do! Appreciate The Support ! Spent The Weekend With Grandkids It Was Awesome!

Well my 20 year old daughter might as well have moved in with her grandmother she spends maybe one night with us.i love her but her boyfriend is not coming back until he has a job im working three and im 46 he is lazy not going to have it anymore 4 years is to long!

I don't think its your daughter...its people in general!!! Most of the time you try to help someone they don't see it that way and they get mad at you!! Good Luck!!!

[hensleyll]

thanks yes it not looking good ,she borrows all month gets 1 pay and it is only 400 she borrows wat more from family i told them to write it down and make her sign she thinks she not supposed to pay back and the baby daddy dont do nothing but mooch off of whoever they are staying with

Whatever the situation you both are going through a transformation. She's becoming an adult and you are having to adjust to her taking control of her own life. Rough one! I suggest a nice cup of tea with a sweet biscuit. You may as well relax getting upset won't help. Don't forget hugs are good medicine for that phase too, but try the tea. I highly recommend Chamomile it's good for relaxing.

I don't know much about the conversation you had, but a lot of times the way you approach someone can have a lot to do with how receptive they are at accepting advice. Also, maybe she was just under some stress that day that you weren't aware of. I think if you open up to her, and tell her that you love her, and just want to help, and that you're sorry you crossed the line, and are there for her, then she may open up more. I know it's frustrating, but just try to be patient and keep the lines of communication open.

One Minute I Dont Do Enough  To Help, Now I`m Crossing Line Telling Her How To Raise Her Kid! I Just Want Do Anything! Talk About Ungrateful!

Why are trying to tell her how to raise her childre?  Maybe she didn't like the way she was raised and wants to change things.  Stay out of trying to tell another adult how to run her household.  Just be a good mother and grandmother-you've done your part with raising your daughter.  She's not being ungrateful, she wants you to stay out of her business.

[hensleyll]

mrisha she calls me involves me not the other way around ,how many children and grandchildren do you have ? Have you never been in this kind of predicament because you sure seem to be judgemental,especially considering i said nothing to my daughter about raising her child i have told them in no uncertain terms i do not want to raise any more children!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
