[quote=Anonymous]OP That is a mature post. But I just want you to consider that even though you are the older adult and your daughter is just a young woman, she may know some things that you do not and you could learn from her. You maybe could learn about being more empathetic and accepting people as they are and learning to talk to people in ways that don’t seem to discount their emotional reality. You could stop trying to “fix” things in other words and just listen nonjudgmentally and be there for her In what is really one of the most stressful part of a persons life, their transition into independent adulthood. You guys have enough of a connection that she does talk to you to a certain extent and the question is would you be willing to change in ways that would make the two of you closer. This is a growth opportunity for you too. You say you are a black and white person but you know the world actually is full of grays.[/quote]
