I need help as far as treating a daughter like a daughter

Hello everyone,
I am asking for help! I have a 33 year old daughter who it seems is always coming up with "why can't you treat me like a daughter should be treated, I have my own family and you just don't treat me like a daughter should be treated". What am I going to do here? I have been wracking my brain to try to come up with a solution but I am lost!! I keep asking her what she means when she says that to me and she says I have to figure it out myself! Duh, what is there to figure out if I don't know what I'm doing wrong? I say the wrong things because every word that comes out of my mouth is being judged right after it has been spoken--She has been sick most of this past week so yesterday my husband and I had to go to Rice Lake with a truck for his work; I asked if the children would like to ride along and then when I went to pick them up she was very distant with me; then it came out that No, I didn't have to do her a favor by taking the children if they stayed home they would just have to work for her around the house. She said her head was just spinning right now and I needed to leave her alone. On Wednesday of this past week I receive an email that states "you are so lucky to not have to deal w/any addictions. Life sucks for the rest of us. Thanks for helping me to realize this". AND then I get told I don't treat her like a daughter should be treated. HELP!! She's the only daughter I have and I can't go on living this with way, not knowing when the next bomb will explode.

She is 33 right? so you must be a lot older.
ok she is a grown up person right?

Try asking her who has addiction problem. check out some good programs and ask for medical advice in case you need to know what is to be done (hope you never have to and this is just attention seeking or something)
Maybe you can befriend someone your age who has a lot of daughters and make them frequent you.. if i were you i might try say ' oh you see so and so's daughter treats her mom so well, she gifted her with this and that'...

hope this helps good luck
