Question about a recent decision I made.?

I think you did the right thing. I'm a 17, a senior in high school, and recently moved out of my house because of a very bad relationship with my father. Right now, the most important thing for you to do is make sure you maintain a relationship with your daughter. My mother calls me every day. I hated it at first, but now that school has started back talking to her is sometimes the only good part of a horrible day. Even if your daughter doesn't always answer or want to talk, it's still essential you stay in touch. You should invite her over when the family is doing things together. I got pretty pissed when I wasn't invited to my little sisters birthday party. Another thing you should probably do is let her know that if she's not living with you, you're not going to help her financially. I know that sounds cruel, but that's what my parents did, and it turned out to be a good thing. I've had to learn to budget money and rely on myself. I know that I can always come home if things get bad (something else you should make sure your daughter knows), but in the meantime I'm having to learn how to live off of minimum wage. Don't stress to much about what's going on, things are going to get better.
