Officially Disengaging
Have to vent..Thanks for listening everyone!!!!
Well this morning DH husband told me he can not keep SD16 away from BM so we will see what happens next week....
OK ? If your child is being hurt, has anxiety, cries alot, would you send them to the person who makes all these symptoms worse? NOOOOOO!!!!! But not my DH...He says BM will be calling soon to smooth talk her and what can he do..It is up to SD...
I'm sorry you are the parent, she is the child, of course she loves her mother, but you need to say to SD, I know you love mom but this is for your own good and when she can straighten her shit out then we can move forward and you can go visit but until then I'm sorry I am just thinking of your well being.....Does this happen of course not so I am sick of worrying about a child that is not even mine. Whatever BM dishes out deal with it because your not doing anything about it anyway so why am I worried?
I officially disengage, even though it is so hard being the mom I am I can not sit back and just watch this mother, who should never have been a mother, do what she is doing to this child, 16 or not she is still a child....I close my eyes and just hope DH opens his....What else can I do she is not my child???

I am presuming your SD16 is
I am presuming your SD16 is choosing to spend time with her BM. I don't really feel that at this age - ie the transition between childhood and adulthood - that you or your DH can prevent her seeing BM if she is determined to do so.
Although he can point out to her that it is not good for her mental health, and if she comes back from visiting BM in a state - then it IS impacting on your family and you should have a say over this.
I think it is a good idea that you disengage. Let the SD and your DH figure out the way forward.
