Thank you again for all support. I am relived she has taken those accusations back in front of SS even though the family conflict is still going strong.
Poor poor girl, rejected by everyone. It's clear from your posts that all you care about is you and clearing up your name.
What were the supposed allegations that were so bad, SS would come right away to talk to her. Did she accuse of sexual abuse, beating her up, locking her in a closet and not feeding her for 48h, or did she say that you were controlling and buying her love?
She reminds me so much of me.... rejected by my mum and dad in very similar circumstances. At 14, I ended up in a boarding school, not by choice at all. At 15, I went aboard and stayed with a host family and for the first time in my life, I had a glance of what a 'normal' family was. It was such an eye opener and for the first time in my life, I started to feel some confidence. When I came back, I insisted in living in my own place and my parents were only too happy to agree with me.
I ended up doing well, very well. When you are thrown into an adult world during your teenage years, you learn to become more resilient than anyone else your age and that resilience make me climb every difficult times I faced during adulthood.
However, the damage was done in terms of my relationship with my parents. I've moved abroad, as far away from them and I'm happy to see them once a year or so. They are now at the age where the roles are reversed, they are the one who need me. Like them, I feel a sense of duty towards them and always will, but do I miss them, do I look forward to seeing them? No, I don't, not at all.
I really hope this girl has the same stubbornness and tough attitude than I had which made me succeed in all I set myself to do.I hope one day, she find someone who will love her for who she and find a balance in her life that means that she won't care at all if she has no further contact with her and you. You (and him) don't deserve it.
