[quote=Anonymous]OP, based on what you have said about your DD, she reminds me of a childhood friend of mine.  This girl was super smart, accomplished, goal oriented, basically achieved everything she set her mind to. But she was so rigid in her thinking and could not tolerate any little thing that did not go her way or was out of her control.  In college, she had a series of unfortunate misunderstandings with a professor (not in a sexual way) and it ended in her dropping out for a year.  We were very close at this point and she was tell me all the details of the incident and I could not for the life of me understand why she was so upset.  She elevated the issue to the dean of the school and when she didn't get the resolution she wanted, she quit school.  We haven't stayed in touch much after college but from what I could gather, at each step of her life and career, she had some misunderstanding with someone and went on a rampage. She was always the victim, and it became increasingly shocking, her accusations.  I am not her but I cannot imagine that being a happy life.

Do not let your daughter become like my brilliant friend. Do not enable her.  Get her to see reality and teach her not to take everything so damn personally.  Should that have happened to her?  hell no, but you need to teach her that life is not fair and she needs to pick her battles. [/quote]
