Gary, I know that it took a lot for you to do this. And I know that Lindsay is the apple of daddy's eye, but you did the right thing. She is growing up, isn't she engaged ? She has learned that she can't walk all over dad. I am so proud of you. And it sounds like she learned something from this experience.

Ray, I feel your pain. I played the tough love card on one of my daughters. A few months later, thru my other daughter, I found out she was pregnant. Long story short, I was not allowed to be at the birth of my 1st grand child. And did not see my grand daughter until she was about 3 months old. I will say that I played the tough love card because of the "user" boyfriend, who by the way has been gone for the past 5 1/2 yrs. Sad time for me, but she needed help and I was there. It took a long time and was not easy, but we worked on our relationship and now have a great relationship. She will be back Ray, you just have to be open to accept her as is, when she reaches out to you.
