Watching your kids floundering is the toughest thing a parent has to do. But Gabe is a good guy and maybe he'll be able to provide the influence Miss Thing needs.
As for the toy strewn house, just accept it. With kids mess is normal.

Try not to feel guilty if you are worried that things don't work out for your daughter over in the States. She's a big girl now, so her mistakes are her mistakes. (And maybe she'll succeed there too...)

I have been back for almost a fortnight and I know exactly what you mean about walking over toy strewn floors etc. Traveling takes a lot out of you and I couldn't imagine trying to go back to work so soon afterwards!

Whatever it is, take a big deep breath. Let it out. Repeat as necessary. Also, if you bought any Reece's peanut butter cups while you were traveling, now might be a good time to dip into your supply.

Good luck.
