Thank you so much for your responses!
Yensid - my daughter has come with me a few times to alnon, she just feels a little out of place as everyone is much older... One of the long time members has expresses interest in starting an alateen group as we don't have one in our small town. Hopefully that happens as I'm sure she would benefit from the support for sure.
Bullfrog - I never thought of it as abuse before.... Definatly makes me think about things for sure!
Seriouskarma - I know my daughter really needs to see me stand up for myself and take care of myself.. Just last night she told me she doesn't know what a normal relationship looks like and it terrifies me to think of her ending up with someone who treats her like her dad treats me....he does have a lot of good in him too, I guess that's why it's so hard to make a decision about this!
I have to work at 7 am tomorrow so I better get to bed! Thanks again
