[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You set up a power struggle and you can’t win. You can’t convince her. You can’t force her. She’s got bodily autonomy and the more you push, the more she will pull. You need to shut up. That’s the only move you have.[/quote] All I could think when I read the OP's posts is, jesus, how can the OP not realize her insistence that this is an issue needing fixing is probably making her daughter resist fixing it? [/quote] Right? My kid with cystic acne didn't want to do anything about it for years; finally decided halfway through college to do something about it. I'd offered once, years earlier, and then done so much shutting up I thought I would burst. But I didn't, and he eventually asked me how to make an appointment. He needed to be ready, and he needed to handle it himself.[/quote]
