DEAR ABBY: I was recently married. I have a daughter, "Courtney,"
from a previous relationship. Things were great before the wedding.
We even included Courtney in the planning. Afterward, however, things
turned sour.
Courtney kept causing problems with my husband, and they both
looked to me to work it out.
I felt like I was being torn in two. No matter what I said to
either of them, or if I just left the room to force them to work it
out without me, things only got worse.
I left my husband over this. I was stressed out. Everyone was
telling me I should not let my daughter dictate what was going on in
my life.
But I'm not going to force my child to live in a home where she
does not feel love ...
