I chose my daughter over my son by just being passive and doing nothing. I allowed my daughter control over everything and silently went along with all she did. If anyone asked me I just said everything was ok and when my son confronted me I sat silent, kept secrets and told lies. My daughter said I was taking my son and DIL side over things and I wanted to show her I wasn't. I didn't call her out on her behaviour and I should have because it's not helpful to her to be this way.
Now my daughter has control of my life and all of my relationships are affected. I no longer see my son and my grandchildren. When I discovered they had another baby I was devastated my daughter just made a nasty comment, she didn't consider how I felt.
My close friends hardly see me, my daughter always has something negative to say about them so I only saw them if she wasn't around which is hardly ever, I feel my daughter is guarding me preventing anyone from having private access to me.
Recently my sister asked me to look after some items for her, they have now gone missing from my home. My sister is now not talking to me as I have been telling her I will look. I think my daughter has had the items and I am protecting her.
I have to keep this going because I have lost so much I can't lose my daughter too. I just wish I'd acted differently when I had the chance. I am worried my daughter will end up sad lonely and alone when I am gone. I am all she has.
Don't make the mistakes I have
