Hello. Please for your help and advice. Let's start from the beginning. I am the mother of a confused twenty-one-year-old girl. They say that love is blind but for the people they love, but I don't think it is blind for everyone around the loved ones we love. That this is how my princess fell head over heels in love or I don't know what exactly. But she spends time with a boy who is jealous of me. She was happy and smiling in the beginning and now she is like a walking zombie. I see only tears in her eyes. Constantly trembling. He is not one of the ankles and pretentious children. She has always stood her ground and what she has said and achieved. With this young man, however, things changed. Now just listen. She went to live in them - She doesn't go out anywhere, she deleted all possible communications. There is no Skype, Facebook, Viber, etc. When he comes home, a ring starts every 10-15 minutes. Where is what he does. I've heard her scream and insult her, and the duck just listens and begs him not to do so. Please tell me how to get her out of his clutches. She is an adult. I really hope so, but I don't think I'm wrong that he touched her. He is a child of authority parents and I guess that's what made him so. I guess but I'm not sure he's threatening her in any way. I talk to her, I explain to her, the whole family, but she looks through me and doesn't hear. When I ask her how she is, she is silent. He does not contact anyone. He doesn't talk to his girlfriends. I do not know what to do. What should I do. I am asking for advice. If anyone has had a similar problem let me know. Any advice will help me.

As a parent, you need to realize that the problem is not yours! That she must realize that she has a problem and fight it alone to build a strong person out of it. Stop making her dependent on you, how do you expect her to discover and solve her problems on her own as you try to solve them before she discovers them? As far as I understand from your story, she has not yet decided that there is a problem, she is begging the enslaver for forgiveness. Her behavior, to feel guilty when she did not specify where she was and what exactly she was doing, is rooted in her childhood, guess who. The enslaver uses the fact that you have raised a girl who, when attacked verbally and physically, feels guilty and prays instead of retaliating. It's okay to show her your support, tell her, for example, that she is always welcome at your place and you will be by her side if she doesn't feel well. But to attack people, who have hurt her, even if you speak ill of them in front of her, this is a big mistake. Hug her silently, let her cry, if she wants, let her tell what is happening to her, but you as a parent should not give advice, hugging is enough, it will give her strength to cope and then she will be a strong woman, because she will stay with the impression and confidence that she had done it alone.
