[quote=Anonymous]Yes, the advice to throw her out and help her get over herself is too much if you actually care about your kid and want to have a relationship. Also, OP you present a great argument for why she is a brat and you were a great mom. C'mon.We all screw up and it's ok. Maybe she had learning issues and you rolled your eyes at the suggestion for an evaluation? Maybe she needed therapy earlier, but you thought it was to woo woo. That doesn't mean you are a bad parent. You are human. I just get a little suspicious when people paint too extreme a picture. Your goal is to gently ease her out her the door. Make sure she has therapy. Encourage friendships. Be there for her. If her behavior gets to you too much get yourself some support-professional, not just people on DCUM telling you that you are a great parent and she is a spoiled entitled brat. Figure out boundaries that work for you where you can be a loving mom, but don't feel constantly blamed and insulted.[/quote]
