I'm glad that you let us know your daughter is safe. It sounds like granny is a good influence and sets limits (after all, didn't your daughter originally decide to live with you because she thought you would be less strict?) Hopefully, over time, your daughter will realize that both you and granny just want what's best for her, even though that means she won't always get her way.
Being a teenager is hard, but being a good parent is harder. Know in your heart you've done the right thing, and leave the doors of communication open with her for the future.

ditto singledad38, Keep the lines of communication open. she may come around in a while. At least you know you did the best you can. That is all any of us can do.

I hope you and your daughter are doing ok now. Teenagers are hard to deal with. You seem like such a nice guy. I wish u the best. Also I hope you will keep us updated on any future events.
