I just hope my sixteen year old son finds his way I feel as if I have lost him . their just isnt any help out their . the more I tried the more venomous she has gotten . I have trumped up assault charges on me my probation is no contact with my son . I try to call and he hangs up on me and the schools refuse to help . counselors and the psychiatric communities hands seem to be tied

My ex waited for our daughter to turned 12 years old to take me to court to revert the original divorce decree. He got temporarily, but I am very sad to see that my daughter refuses to spend any time ith us (2nd husband and our 2 year old boy) she hates me and finds every opportunity to let me know. She demands for me to buy her expensive clothing, shoes, purses etc, and when I dont do it, she calls me cheap and that I dont care for her.
I am getting into a very bad depression and feel hopeless, I am originally from Mexico and my daughter gets embarrased if I go to her school, she has prohibited from me doingit. I just cant find a wayto overcome my ex’s narcississm, I need to find a suport group in San Antonio Texas.

I have in desperation, after many efforts to bring the problem to light reverted to telling my daughter, who is 15 now, that the source of our problem lies in her mother’s egoism. She reacted with vehemence, but she is not totally unaware of her mother’s nature of playing one against the other.
I am though anxious of the result. What can I do? I see an intelligent girl slowly turning into a kind of a zombie, beside herself.

What happens when the other parent is so abusive and overbearing that they make you feel like you don’t want them involved because they refuse to stop abusing? Its like a nightmare. What do you do when you learn that this secret abuse has been going on for years behind your back and it is just a natural part of their personality? What do you do when the other parent is a professionally diagnosed narcississist who refuses any treatment? What if the other parent is a abusive control freak? Its not that I don’t want my children to have their father in their life…I want him to leave them alone mentally and physically and be the loving, caring, person that he pretends to be in front of everyone else.
