Well that’s exactly my point. I have contacted her on two separate occasions now saying, come on, let’s put this behind us. I love you and we are just being silly now. And both times she has come back scathing and vindictive. I have to set some boundaries surely and also let her know that her behaviour is not acceptable and does have consequences. I don’t mean in a mitherly wsy, I realise I’m not her mother, but her actions have had a domino effect and she’s getting so wrapped up in drama. Her behaviour is unacceptable and surely I’m not supposed to just allow her to act this way and makeb things difficult for everyone? I thought we were supposed to set healthy boundaries where people who are selfish and draining are concerned?

I’ve reached out with love twice now, and both times she has acted terribly and selfishly. I’m sorry she might be going through some things right now but where do you draw the line?
