Please be gentle.
She is sixth form 17 as in just started.
She has moved in with her dad. Citing my mood swings as the reason she hates me and will never live with me again.
My mood swings? Well, yes I can be emotional. I do have high standards re: trashing my house, bringing all her friends in, not helping with chores etc.
We just cant get on. She has sent me an awful message tonight stating the above (the mood swings bit) - she moved out about 2 months ago.
She only contacts me for money or if her dad wont let her do something.
Yesterday I took her out and spent a fortune on new stuff for her beautifully new decorated bedroom at my house.
I dont know how bad my moods are? I work 8-5 5 days a week in an extremely demanding job, single mum, one child young primary age, one a teenager. I dont sleep very well because Im always worrying about her.
Ive recently been put under a huge amount of pressure trying to secure a new mortgage after ex partner tried to mess everything up for me.
Everything in my life is a struggle, nothing at all is easy - I suppose I am unhappy a lot of the time but I try not to be, I have good friends and family and we see them a lot, do stuff together.
Any advice at all? Even just for me? I feel like Im losing her.
