Lustorlove,
I guess people stay together out of familiarity. It's not happy but it's what they know. People are often afraid to move on.

I would give her a space and hopefully things will solve themselves or she will get the help she needs through whomever that may be. Having said that you should interfere as need be if developments warrant as such.

They say love and hate are opposite sides of the same coin. Perhaps a bit of time will heal the wounds for both your son and daughter. Maybe it's best just to give them space and allow them a safe haven with you.

Re:
yes that is true but to see a grown man cry when its  your son is hard

Just love them and patiently be there for them.  I know that is hard, but as adults, they must do their own thing and learn from any mistakes.  It must be comforting for them to know that you care.

CONCERNED BUT CURIOUS
Lustorlove, with my teenage daughter, I would let her know that I thought that something was bothering her and that is she needed to talk I was there.  Sometimes she would be willing to talk about what was bothering her and other times she took awhile before she would open up.  But teenagers as you know can be very touchy.  Good luck/LBJ

lustorlove, it's a dangerous time.

Matters of the heart can really be so painful lustorlove and best  left to the concerned unless they open up and ask for help imho. I hope she does so that you can be there for her.

Ouch...how old is your daughter?  If she's a teenager, you should tread lightly since they think everything a parent does is "meddlesome" in some way.   Just to test the waters though, I would tell her that you're there for her to talk to if she wants to, whenever she wants - but say it when you feel a little safe to say it.  If she's in high emotion, it will just be taken badly.  I'm sure she knows she can go to you for anything, but it never hurts to reinforce the thought.  Much luck to you.
