you cant say shes better off without her. its not her fault all this happened. yet she being blamed for how she is reacting.
You're looking at it from the mother's perspective, but the bolded is exactly how the mother is treating her daughter.
Which is why I think the daughter is better off without her.
As bad as this sounds, it would be a lot easier for the daughter to embrace her biological mother if the woman who kidnapped her was a horrible mother who subjected her to years of abuse/neglect/trauma and didn't show her any love.
However, that obviously wasn't the case
From all accounts, her daughter grew up in a loving household.
Bottom line, the mother and daughter are in need of group therapy.
The mother more than the daughter because she needs to get a better understanding of her daughter's perspective.
Based on the video, Iyanla is definitely not the one who should be facilitating this.
