Dear Liz! Sorry to hear the content of your post. I would have thought that your daughter would have got past the point of blaming others after 4 years in recovery. I know that her life would be a lot harder were it not for the practical support you give her. Most grandparents don’t look after their grandkids even close to the level that you have. It’s unfortunate that she can’t see the gift that you have given her and her son, and appreciate it. We can’t change people only how we react to them, and don’t be hard on yourself because you didn’t react the way you would have wanted to. None of us are perfect! Be as kind to yourself as you are to others. Happy Recovery Day! Carole
