How did you come to that diagnosis?


Frantic efforts to avoid abandonment
Multiple unstable relationships
Self harm
Impulsive behavior

The last two could be anything. ADHD with depression etc.
Where is she trying to avoid abandonment? Seems SHE is abandoning her parents.

She doesn't want to be abandoned by the boyfriend. She is willing to give up her whole identity not to lose him. And people don't self harm with depression and ADHD.

The daughter has traumatic brain injury, or did you miss that part?

Why don’t you buy the house from he trust, OP?

TBI at age 2 and you bought a house an car - that's what I can't get past.

If it was my 2 yr old, I would have used the money to find the best most promising therapeutic treatments available and treatment facilities. Hyperbaric oxygen treatment, whatever. I think the potential of a 2 yr old recovering more functionality than say a 20 yr old is true and I would have researched and pursued it all.

The title of your post includes "and now I am losing my house" so yea, you did imply the money was yours since the home was purchased with that money. Sorry but the backpedaling to make it seem like you're only concerned for your daughter when the title of your post is all about the impact to you seems disingenuous at best.

I agree with the 01/13/2018 15:27 PP and I'd love you hear how your daughter would describe your relationship.

Doesnt that make it more likely she will have emotional instability and a personality disorder?

She had a TBI at age 2. I have had 2 TBIs at 17 and 20 and it’s would be pretty rich to say they cause my family problems.

Yes, in part. It does not mean she has borderline personality, it means she has TBI and the physical and emotional sequalae from that. People on here need to stop armchair diagnosing and start co side ring the pathology what has already been explained. She may have concurrent illness/disorder, but chances are her reactions are only the result of the normal behaviors and lability expected from TBI.

Have you spoke with the trustee? There is no reason to believe that a pregnant 18 yo with a brain injury is stable enough to purchase property. That's crazy. At the same time, there are good reasons to maintain the family home, even if she's not living there. For instance, maintaining the family home would allow her to be able to move home if her current relationship ends. That's what most 18 yos would do. Absent abuse it seems like the trust should maintain the status quo while paying rent for your dd for a while until things settle down.

Really? This is a teenage girl who is cutting, in an emotionally abusive relationship, pregnant, and vascilating between cutting off her parents and going to live with them. Does this seem normal to you?
As I said, the OP needs to recognize that she and her daughter have a messed up relationship, and the OP needs to change her part in it.

Who said anything about “normal”.

What part of TRAUMATIC brain injury is lost on you? Do you know what happens to a brain when it’s injured? It means life is never the same.

As you can’t seem to use common sense, medical science, or the Google, you can refer to some of these, or you can research yourself:

Problem is OP should have set up guardianship before DDs 18th and didn’t.
