You sound as if you have high-functioning autism. I know two families with that dynamic. The affected parent doesn't realize he (usually it's a he) has permanently alienated his spouse and kids until the kids become teens and they verbalize it to him, and the spouse sees the end of the road and makes practical plans to divorce.

You are angry because your daughter unwittingly opened your eyes to the consequences of your cumulative relationship mistakes over the course of your marriage and parenting. You are actually angry at yourself, but your conscious mind cannot accept that, so you punish your child for the truth that she expressed.

I'm not sure that therapy can help you, because by now all these emotional and social reflexes are deeply ingrained, but you can always try. What you must do immediately is stop punishing others for the consequences of your actions. Otherwise you will only accelerate the dissolution of your relationships.

You sounds insane and stop using "autism" as a put down. WTF is wrong with you.[/quote]
