My daughter, the dark side.

My youngest daughter has always been drawn to the dark side of life. As a child her favorite movie was Nightmare before Christmas. Her favorite holiday is Halloween and she's invested tv shows like Supernatural and Grimm. Of all possible places to visit in the world she wants to go to Salem Mass.

When my daughter comes to visit a natural clash between positive and negative energy as her presence is recognized. I love my daughter but its not healthy for us to spend long periods of time with her.

Good grief, no wonder she's being negative. What a thing to say.

She being positive about what she enjoys in life & you negative about her choice? At 39 isn't it about time you accepted her for herself?

Just like I just posted. It's up to them, the parents, how they want to interact with her. It's not up to folks on this forum, not even me.

Are you saying negative people have no effect on others? My wife & I enjoy our lives together and bringing in another party disrupts our peace and quiet. “What a thing to say” Let me guess you see things differently from me, What an original thought.

I don't confront her about her choices only that I shared with you her choices make up the individual she is. I prefer short term exposure over an elongated time with her. It is best for all.

This isn't about facts it about opinions on the op's post. My opinion is that a 39 yr. old daughter has the right to live her life as she sees fit.

Other than discomfort when she is around you what legal or actual physical harm has she done?
 
You are making much more of this than it is & reading things into it that aren't there.
My niece also likes dark things - skulls, anything that involves death, etc. & she's normal.
My nephew has been into monsters since he was a child. He's a successful commercial artist for the movie & video game industry. His "obsession" (and talent) got him a 3 million dollar house right out of high school.

At least you are not estranged. Could be worse.

That "other party" is your own daughter!
I never heard such things when my parents were alive and that is why I am blessed, even when I don't see it. Thanks for reminding me.

NO! The other party is anyone who does not live in my house, You are confused by your own disapproval. Let me be clear, all of my married life, my wife and I shared our home in-laws and kids. Everyone has flown the coup and we couldn’t be more happy. My youngest daughter struggle with mental health symptoms and sometimes seeks respirate in our house because it is a stable environment.

My oldest daughter recently moved back into the area in a nearby town. The difference between behaviors and personality is substantial.

My mother-in-law moved in after losing her husband in 1992. She lived with us for 18 years, the atmosphere was tense. Only recently, my wife and I have the house to ourselves along with our pets. Hopefully you understand why privacy is so precious to us. It’s not that we shun family interactions it’s just the kids and us have separate lives, we get together when we want to not because everyone is obliged meet on specific days.

I am not the monster you portray me to be, on the contrary my family gets along well together despite our differences. My kids are grown, they live their lives as they see fit, It is not my place to judge.
 
One thing I don't understand, and it is about No One in particular. Someone starts a thread. There is something disputable about it. People write comments. The author of the OP gets all defensive and ornery. My question: why write the thread, or, once written, why post it?

True. But, if the parents don't necessarily like her lifestyle, just what do they do? The parents have a very different, and nicer, lifestyle than her, but her lifestyle is her choice.

Anyway, I have a full Darth Vader Halloween costume (the Dark Side) and anyone who sees me in it in a picture, loves it. But, I don't worship the "Dark Side".
