I think I am too obsessed with dc's and what is going on on their lives and what they are doing. Particularly dd who is the one who gives me all the grief. My whole life seems to revolve around her and whatever she is getting up to and I feel its unhealthy as it affects my life so much, usually in a bad way. Its all so complicated and the range of emotions I go through on a daily basis is crazy.I just want her to be happy and safe and I find it so difficult to step back and not judge and interfere. DM says she thinks I am disappointed in the way did has turned out, as she is not the perfect obedient child etc and maybe that is right. Dd is an argumentative, opinionated, lazy, entitled little sod with no sense of danger or consequences and I am sick of the constant atmosphere and occasional blow ups. Ds is completely different. I don't know what to do about myself and I don't know why I am rambling on but I have to change as its driving me nuts. Anyone got any suggestions other than to stop being pathetic.

Do you think you are too wrapped up in dc's lives
