my daughter

[tiebreaker]

my daughter is 41 with 3 children i have not seen her for 3 years she has moved and she has not given her family her address she has always been a very private person and has a personality problem. but i love her and she knows it she has cut us all off so i am not the only one but i miss her, she knows where i live and i am hoping she will one day come around, i want to know how i can cope untill she does i have tried finding her but its hopeless and i dont think she wants to be found.

If she does not want to be found, then that's that. As much as you might love them, you don't own your children. Time to move on.

I can't begin to imagine how you must be feeling right now tiebreaker & I wish I could help you find your daughter. However, it's patently obvious that she doesn't want any contact with you or your family.

Having said that, you just never know - one day she may decide to pick up the phone & talk to you, but until then, I think you will have to carry on with your life in the best possible way, maybe by filling your days with hobbies - easier said than done, I know.

Take care. -x-

My heart goes out to you, tiebreaker, it's not just your daughter, but your grandchildren as well.

Have you tried the National Missing Persons Helpline? They may not be able to help you find your daughter until she is ready to be found but they can maybe give you advice on how to cope, and also, you can leave messages there should your daughter decide to make contact that way.
