my daughter is 25 and says i dont stick up for her. i was filing for divorce cause of her. i would give up everything just to make her happy. she never sent me a mothers day card or not even called me. the question is, should i send her a birthday card
I need advice?
Yes,youre her mother,send her a card and let you know you love her....just because shes acting childish doesnt mean that you should...also...your daughter needs to grow up....shes a adult now...mommy cant fight her battles
Reply:YES, YOU SHOULD SEND HER A CARD. BUT ON THE OTHER NOTE YOU NEED TO STEP BACK AND LET HER GROW UP!!! WHAT DO YOU MEN YOU ARE GETTING A DIVORCE CAUSE OF HER? IF HE DID NOT ABUSE HER OR ANYTHING TO THAT EXTENT THEN YOU ARE NOT DIVORCING FOR HER. SHE IS A GROWN WOMAN NOW AND YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO LIVE YOUR LIFE AND ENJOY YOU ARE NOT LIVING FOR HER. MAYBE SHE IS USING THE GUILT TRIP THING ON YOU AND YOU SHOULD NOT FALL FOR THAT. YOU CAN NOT MAKE UP FOR WHAT YOU DID NOT DO, WHATEVER MISTAKES YOU MADE IN THE PAST YOU CAN ONLY START AT WHERE YOU ARE. SHE IS MANIPULATING YOU. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT YOU ARE DEALING WITH SELF ESTEEM ISSUES AND ARE NOT SURE OF YOURSELF AND YOUR DAUGHTER IS USING THAT TO HER ADVANTAGE. APOLOGIZE FOR WHAT YOU DID IN THE PAST AND MOVE ON IT IS UP TO HER TO ACCEPT OR NOT. BUT DO NOT WALK AROUND BEING GUILTY.
Reply:If your daughter is 25, she's an adult. It's not your job to make her happy or file for a divorce "for" her. Clarify some boundaries for yourself and for her. You're not her best friend, you're her mother. Certainly send her a birthday card. Work on the mother-daughter bonding, but live your own lives. It's not good for you or for her.
Reply:As a mother you need to show unconditional love. Of course, you should send her a birthday card, even if she never sends you anything. BUT do not continue to live your life around her. She is 25 and an adult, and why you would get a divorce FOR HER is beyond me. You need to start living for YOU!
Reply:yes, shes your daughter. and until they have kids they wont appreciate anything their parents have done. do you remember the saying"just wait until you have kids". she might not thank you now but someday she might. so wish her a happy birthday and chalk it up for a future thank you
Reply:Yes, you should because you are the adult and need to set the example, but you are filing for divorce because of her? I don't know the circumstances but that sounds wrong. Don't do it unless you want a divorce!!!!
Reply:Send her a card, but don't get a divorce for her, the divorce should be for you, because you know it's right for you.
Reply:Your divorcing for her? Hmmmm sounds like she needs to grow up and sometimes that calls for some tough love. You have to let her go and she needs to let you go so she and you can grow.
Reply:Yes that is your daughter , just because your daughter is an inconsiderate spoiled brat doesn't mean you should be .
She should be ashamed of herself treating her mother like this .
