I think this is the crux of it, you need to grow and change as life calls all of us to do. It's your choice but you are miserable and I'm guessing so is your family. My ex was like you and bailed. I used to be more like you but had to grow, there were no other grownups left. We are happier now. This is your life OP. It's up to you to make the most of it. If you were in an accident and had disfiguring injuries, where would "I feel I'm not cut out to deal" get you? At some point you have to make a choice. Resenting your DD hasn't made anyone happy. Have you tried making the best family you can with the people who are in it? In the past people could send their kids away, it's not really such an option now. She is going to live with you for 15 or more years. You can a good life for everyone or go on as you are. I'm guessing that you have strong preferences for how things look and should be and maybe some issues with perfectionism and anxiety. This child is a gift to help you blow through all of that and find out what really makes a family. Your NT child is watching and loves DD. What message are you giving and how does that impact his/her life?[/quote]
