My 19 year old daughter won't talk to me?

So your new husband inappropriately touched your daughter and you think its acceptable to stay with this man!!!

The age thing isn't the problem here, its your lack of caring for your childrens safety.

If a teacher had touched her inappropriately, would you ask her to keep seeing that teacher or would you report it and do what you can to prevent it from happening again?

Your staying with someone who hurt your daughter and your ultimately putting her in that situation again. if he does it once, whats going to stop him from doing it again?

You need to ditch this loser guy who you married after not knowing him for long (which was a dumb idea on both your parts) and focus on protectiong your kids.

Its easy to say your ex took custody from you because he doens't want them around your new husband, but if the courts thought that they were safe in your care they wouldn't have allowed that. beleive me! my boyfriend and i have been trying to get full custody of his son for months, and they wont do it, even though we think its a bad environment for his son to be with his ex. The courts will always do their best to keep custody equal unless it is unsafe or an unsuitable environment for the children, so i can only imagine what sort of environment you have created there (or your new husband).

Take a look at the big picture. step back and try to see what your children and ex are seeing in your relationship and try to figure out why no one approves. Its not them whos messing up, its you.

It's not just your daughter but anyone that was staying in the guest room for over a month would probably want fair notice that you or anyone will be coming into their current place of stay and moving things. If you were planning to re-arrange the room then just give her 48 hours notice. That's reasonable to get her mentally prepared for what's to come. Also about the lotion, yes it could very well cost $20. If it was from her boyfriend then he probably bought it at Bath and Body Works. They do offer a variety of scents and why she likes coconut is beyond me. Tell her to smell the Black Rasperry Vanilla. Yes it is your car but if you allow her to drive to those quick trips up the road then you are also allowing her to drive to see her bf. If you take the car away then you greatly risk damaging her respect for you. And she wants a job so she can be independent of you. It seems she secretly would rather work at a job she hates than being under your control for fear of not having money. Because of this she will not learn the value of a dollar and not understand what an "honest day's work" is. But if you are really determined for her to do good in school then ask her what she wants to do for a career. Then have her write down a list of 10 things she can do to get that career. Put that list in her room and tell her when she wakes up to look at the list and ask herself what can she work towards to do those things on the list. Good luck!

i think a DIVORCE is called for. Who dates a guy who touches their daughter inappropriately. You need to do some serious making up with your daughter, I hope you really are a troll because if you're not you're really thick. 3 weeks?? FAR too soon to marry someone.

It will take time. If I were in your position, I would make a point to not be what she says you are. (be it nutty, irresponsible, whatever she's claiming is the problem).

Also, what is "wrong" with your new husband that you lost custody of your other kids over??? I can't see his age being the only factor.

As your daughter gets older, she may not be as annoyed by your husband being younger than you. It just seems absurd to her because she's 19. I'd give it time. I'd let her know regularly that you love her (send her a card or something) and that you want her in your life, but I would give her space (as in don't call crying or anything). She'll come around.

Well you shouldn't have lied to her. You have lost her trust. So what you should do is not try to talk to her, wait until she talks to you. Then you might be able to talk to her about why you did this. Try to understand how you would feel if you were in her position. Because I know I would hate it if I was in her position. And remember, things will never be the same with you and your daughter, your mistakes have changed the way she'll see you for the rest of her life.

You must be a troll, your story doesn't add up.

You can't just lose custody because your ex doesn't like your new hubby - as young as he is.

*Alright, I see where your daughter is getting the idea that you're mental from. You married a man that harassed her. Get a grip, lady - you can't be THAT dense.

jst giv her time she will come round in the end but if u think bout it u did lie 2 her bout it in the first place nd she probs does think ur craz 4 goin 4 a younger man that is almost the same age as ur daughter thats loopy

Well maybe you should stop dating.

Why the hell would you date a man who touched your daughter inappropriately? That's sick.

HE TOUCHED HER INAPPRORIATELY! I would run away from you,your a horrible person for not leaving this man! Disgusting.

Hmmm, you married a bloke your daughter turned down. Nice.
