You need to be there for your daughter Elizabeth

Luigi's post to your daughter has not helped the situation at all Elizabeth. If anything it would have only antagonised her more if she chose to read it. Dissecting her post and criticizing her every thought and comment was... only adding fuel to a raging fire. Your daughter is in denial and certainly very angry and needs your support at this time in every way. Whilst you don't agree with her actions and decisions you must stand by her and be there for her if needed. She is 40 years old and you are treating her as a 12 year old.

I have admitted that I don't think that her relationship is for "real" as there are too many "red flags" and I have indicated these in my reply to her post.. Please just be patient with her and unfortunately if there is a mistake to be made then she will have to learn from it.
