[quote=Anonymous]OP, it is you I am worried about. I think you need to focus on building up more of your life, interests and marriage. If you are not so emeshed with DD she won't have to attack you as hard (not excusing it but is sounds like you use her for companionship and to meet your emotional needs). Therapy that focuses on YOU, not DD, some weekend trips with your DH, maybe a PT job could all do wonders to rebalance your family dynamics. You need to have more of a core YOU and better boundaries so she can be her own person. The way she manipulates you and how NEEDY you are for it, that you even acknowledge it, says that things are not right in you and your marriage and life. That is where your focus should be. Your emotional needs being met by her is not healthy for anyone. Work on those things and I'm guessing her behavior will be a LOT less extreme.[/quote]
