You know marlene, when I got most of the way through that, I thought exactly what the ending came out as, being she was turning a problem into a teenage benefit for attention. This is teenage behaviour... they get hold off something that can hurt their parents, or cause their parents to provide constant on tap attention, and they run with it, because they don't fully comprehend or understand the ramerfications of their decisions. They are made without any input, without commonsense, because that often fails to exist throughout teenage years, they use what they have and simply do not have the maturity to think outside the box.

Marlene, anger is built up off emotions. This doesn't change, and applies to everything we do. What do you feel really? Your stuck because you stopped at anger, instead of looking below the surface to what is causing the anger. Lets go deeper Marlene... what do you feel?

I feel betrayed that my daughter could use my emotional state for her own well-being.
I feel she abused my love for her own self pity.
I feel disgusted that she could not think off others past herself.
etc etc etc...

Use the List of Emotions and Emotional Responses. At the bottom is a one page printable list of them all... get used too them Marlene, use them for each and every incident to find the emotional state for each. We must deal at the emotional level to heal the problems, because anger or rage is dealing with the problem, not the cause. The root of all trauma is the emotional level, that is fact.
