I really agree with Gazelle. I think the quickest way to grow closer to someone is to take a genuine interest in what they are doing and really support their efforts. I think your DD will see you in a whole new light if you really support her and help her in her venture in the Gulf.

I, too, distanced myself from my mom when I was her age. You know what happened? As soon as I really moved away, I couldn't call her enough and we grew closer again.
