Having Raised a Daughter
Raising a daughter is the most difficult task I ever saw fit to undertake. At this juncture in our relationship I dread getting old and having to be dependent upon her for my care. I would rather hire help and live alone. She makes me feel as though I will be advised to purchase a gun, a wheel chair and a pistol to feel safe in my own home. I hate to say it, but she already does not have my best interest at heart. She is living with me now. Grant you when I was on my knuckles I moved in with her. She did not make me feel comfortable when I lived with her. I do not feel comfortable now that the tables have turned and she is living with me.
Does the term narcissist mean anything to you? It does to me. That daughter I spoke on mine is a narcissist.

Oh yeah I almost forgot to tell you. When she was sixteen she got pregnant, well I was a devoted employee from the age of 16 until I got sick at age 54. I would rather have worked eighteen hours a day that play housefrau. I allowed her man to move in with me to take care of his children.
How was I to know that he is the kind of man who will not work? For the next few years they lived with me. She added a second child in the mean time. Finally when her man decided that my house was his and choose to sell drugs I put them out. I paid their first and last month's rent she contributed the security deposit. I gave her all of my furniture to get started and moved into an apartment with my son and my man.
To show her appreciation they destroyed the furniture without
