Thanks Amanda but anyway, during her younger age I did everything as I was thinking and I have now a big and solid daugther, good at school (studing in international program and learning French, English and Spanish and strong in maths and sciences....she wants to become veterinar...maybe she will "care of me in the future" ) (smile). And she is playing in the volley-ball team and represent her class in the student council. So, the "moule" is good and I have just to be patient and wise for...some years... ;-)) But the answers reboost me as I had a down and made the proof that the best way for me is to continue to follow my heart...but I really enjoyed some answers, for ex. one of David and like the idea to being the refuge for her and let her father be the "discipline man as the bete noire"...I will keep it in mind... until now I was the more serious one...so time is over. Thanks again to Ned and every body for answer me. When we feel in a cheap mood, every answer is precious. Have a nice day !
