To Write Love On Her Arms

My daughter does not know I have actually looked at this site...something inside me doesn't want her to know. I support the cause but it's like...oh, hell, I don't really know how to explain how I feel about it..... See, she has struggled with self-injury and has now decided to turn to boys and drug experimentation......all of which we have caught her at. Now her social life is very limited until we can "trust her agaian". Hell! I have so worried about what the rest of the world might do and have done to my babies I never imagined I would be struggling with keeping one of them from hurting themselves!!!!!!!

I love her very much and she thinks I hate her and am not nice to her. Her friend told me the other day she said , "I might be nice to her if she were nice to me......." at which her friend reminded her once again of my love for her and that I am nice to her.......

Ugh!!!!

Just some more of life huh?
