[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 529922, member: 1233"] You started on the wrong foot. This is YOUR home, she is freeloading and in my opinion this is NOT a healthy dynamic for either of you. There should have been rules and consequences defined BEFORE she moved in. TIme to stop the BS. ANd htis is BS. Are you okay with her living with you, off of you, not working full time (delivering pizzas is nOT that hard a job - trust me, I have done it), and spending her free time partying? Where does saving $$ figure n with the partying? I think Lisa (Hound Dog) has it right. If they can do an overnight somewhere, then they do NOT need to live with you as they have somewhere to go other thna your home. Supporting her on ANY level right now is enabling the partying. She MUST have full time employment even if it means 2 jobs and more than 40 hrs/week. Actually that would be a GOOD thing. She also shoudl be at the stage of eating ramen and mac n chz from a box to be able to pay all her bills, nto the live iwth the luxuries paid for by your hard work and your $$$. She MUST pay rent. She MUST have a chore list and it MUST be done. I will ask Lisa to come and let you know the restrictions her children have to live at home. they are really GOOD and logical. [/QUOTE]
