Your comments are so callous. She didn't say her cousin could not be friends with other people. She is being snubbed by her relative. That is painful. She also set boundaries with her cousin and she is not obeying the boundaries. Can't you understand that?

if you trully consider them your family, then you wouldnt see them as someone who shafted you. she went away to school. you make it seem like she did such a horrible thing, molested your daughter, branded her with the iron.
this is not a reason to not trust some one. i dont see a violation of trust here. i just see hurt feelings because things are not the way they used to be. that happens. this is life. people drift in and out of life.
i have friends that i have not spoken with or seen in months, because of distance. do i think they are bad people? no! i just understand the reality of life. especially for a young indivudual tryin to establish themselevs as an adult.
this isnt the high school idea of friends. YOU HAVE TO BE MY FRIEND AND MY FRIEND ONLY!!!
this is not a big deal. as you get older you will realize that people have different responsibilites. as for forgiveness, there should have been nothing to forgive in the first place.
good luck. dont you have other relatives? friends? family? in the area to help with your daughter. get her some playmates. and then when auntie shows up for her monthly visit it wont be that bad.
But you can return emails, texts, and make phone calls. I have been in graduate school for a while and have had plenty of FREE time to talk, email, and interact with others. You people make up excuses that are a bunch of BS.

I guess this is what makes me the most mad......I'm busy too with Work full time, school full time, a 5 year old, a 29 year old (lol) a house to maintain etc.......but I always make time for ppl who mean a lot ot me......I truly wouldn't be mad if it were just me as I would just chalk it up to the wind but when I see my daughters face and have to sit there and fumble around for an answer when she asks is really disheartening.........

When I was in grad school, youngin', there WERE no emails or texts. There was only the phone. And that was a luxury, finding the time to use it.

Let's clear something up - did she PROMISE to keep in touch on a regular basis? Or did she say she'd TRY? Big difference, right?
Speaking of fumbling around - I never got an answer as to why everyone in my family started dying off when I was 7, even though I asked a LOT of people...sometimes life just happens. Perhaps these early lessons could be beneficial to your daughter, in a way that we can't see right now...
Okay....I guess you can be off the hook seeing as how your dinosaur ate your homework
KIDDDDIINNNGGG!!!!!!!
