DEAR DEIDRE: AT the age of 67, I feel I\u2019m really rather too old to be lectured but that is what I have to put up with every single day.<\/p>\n
My daughter is 33 and apparently knows it all, whereas I do not.<\/p>\n
At the moment she is in a real huff with me because I paid for my other daughter to stay in a hotel while the weather was unbearably hot.<\/p>\n
My younger daughter is 31 and is an alcoholic.<\/p>\n
Heartbreakingly her life has become so chaotic she is now unable to hold down a job, only attracts other damaged men and has lost custody of her only son, who is aged seven years old.<\/p>\n
She has been homeless for the last year and I couldn\u2019t bear to think of her struggling in the heat so paid for a basic hotel for three nights.<\/p>\n

But my eldest daughter was incensed and accused me of lavishing more attention on my \u201cdead-end child\u201d than her.<\/p>\n
She is a nurse but I don\u2019t see anything caring in her behaviour.<\/p>\n
She is resentful of her nephew, my grandson because he also lives with me \u2013 I\u2019m his guardian \u2013 and refuses to even acknowledge him when she is here.<\/p>\n
We normally speak every day but she has blanked me since I paid for the hotel.<\/p>\n

DEIDRE SAYS:\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>Your daughter is trying to punish you by ignoring you but be mindful she is doing this to try and control you.<\/p>\n This is emotional abuse. It is a passive-aggressive stance so don\u2019t let things continue as they are because it is making you so unhappy.<\/p>\n Pick a calm moment to tell her how you feel. Don\u2019t be defensive, instead set boundaries and resist responding to her attacks.<\/p>\n Her behaviour suggests she is jealous of her sister and nephew, which may seem ridiculous considering what you have told me about their lives.<\/p>\n However, it is very likely she is unhappy about something in her life, and needs to blame someone else, rather than face up to the reality of that.<\/p>\n My support pack Standing Up For Yourself should help you.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\nMost read in Dear Deidre<\/h2>\n
