My life’s path was significantly altered when I gave birth to my daughter at the age of sixteen, and my planned future never materialised. My daughter is 16 years old and pregnant, and history is repeating itself—I received little to no support when raising her. She wants me to raise the child with her since the father is no longer involved. I informed her that she couldn’t keep it because, at 32, I’m not ready to start over with a new child.
She was set on keeping the baby, even in spite of my position. Putting her things outside was my only alternative, even though I knew she had nowhere else to go.

Upon my return home, I discovered that everything I held dear had vanished. My gold jewellery, some cash I had hidden away, and even kitchen appliances she could sell were among the treasures she had taken.
She wrote me a letter explaining that she felt entitled to take what she considered to be her “right” to begin a new life with her child because I had kicked her out when she was still a minor.

I haven’t heard from her in several days. Her pal said she’s alright and that she’s been able to rent a flat. I’m feeling completely lost and unsure of what to do at this point.
