My daughter and I feel so isolated lately. It seems like every time we get together they seem so stressed out and a little hostile. The time we have is together is sad because they seem to be pushing my daughter and I away. I love my sister but she won't answer any of my phone calls anymore. I tried to send her e-mails too. I was concerned because we used to talk all the time and suddenly she stopped calling. Her son came over our fathers house to be watched. He is ten years old. I also can't talk to my father he just seems angry all the time. He has no patience with me or my daughter. But I noticed when my sister son came over he was a completely different person. He treats my daughter and I one way in front of people and another way alone. My daughter who is only 8 asked my sisters son who is 10 if he wanted to go to the carnival. Of course he was thrilled and he came up to me and asked me if he could come. I got on the phone and asked my sister if it was all right. Did I do something terrible? Please tell me! Because I received a e-mail from my sister stating that she and her husband were very angry with me. I should have talked to her first. OMG! I have had many of my daughters friends ask her to go places or sleep over. Is my family having a nervous breakdown? My father yells at everything. He has no patience with children. I thought when you get older that was a virtue. My mother she has her own life she could care less if she ever saw us. So they isolate themselves from us or I see wrath of God. Only kidding! ThankGod I have God!

Are you and your daughter living with your father? Is he supporting the two of you? Is there any resentment? Is he able to, financially and at his age? Do you work, bring in any money?

It isn't easy to begin to answer this sort of question without being there, so I'm grasping at whatever I can. Most resentment, studies say, revolves around money, but of course not always.

Did you read the question? It was just not my father but my mother and sister. I should have explained myself my father has been like that most of my adult life. He treated my mother like this and then she left him.

I came into money from my heart surgery. I gave most of my money like a dope to my oldest daughter and to my dad for helping while I was disable. I kept enough to buy my car.I also gave to a small church because I thought I should give back to God and bought a lot of Gift cards so they could have free turkeys for Thanksgiving. The gifts stopped coming and I'm poor I'm no ones friend anymore. I know my oldest daughter called me ever day. I helped her with her mortgage, her car, a new couch, and a lot of American Express gift cards. I don't hear much from her now.
