My first thought for you is you need to get out of the middle. Your daughter and husband need to build their relationship. The stronger their relationship is the less likely you will find your self in the middle. I would challenge you to ask yourself, why you stay there... in the middle. What does it feed in you. And then with love and compassion take a step back and allow the two people who really have the problem to address them. I am not saying its as easy as all that. I am struggling right now with my son... its a long road but your post has made me realize that I need to step back and look at this from another perspective... and that even though I want a quick fix its gonna happen ONLY over time. I hope you do not think i am intruding where I shouldn't. Please forgive me if that is the case. But I too am a mom struggling to find what God has in store for me and to listen to how he is using my kids and family to teach me and mold me. Many blessings to you this day!
