IrmaJean Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 Welcome to the community, gmallen. I'm sorry you are going through this painful situation. Are you able to contact your daughter and find out how she is feeling? Phone calls, if possible, or writing letters may help her to feel supported until you can be there with her. This might also help you to feel more comfortable going back to your role as mother to your children. Confiding your concerns to your mom and asking for her support could also be helpful.Take care.

ShortbusNinja Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Ok I know this may be a repeat statement from a different post but do you both have computer access and web cams. Get skype and video chat to see if that can help. Maybe get in contact with her school counselor and see if they can just have her talk about it all.
