[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 314429, member: 1967"] Nancy, I completely understand your feelings. I would not want to provide boyfriend with a free place to live. However, I don't think you want difficult child back home, either. So how about a slight change of plans? Provide difficult child with an apartment until June. By then, she should have a job and be paying her own bills and if boyfriend moves in with her when he graduates he can help with the rent since you won't be paying anymore. Six months instead of a year . . . long enough to get her footing but you still have peace and quiet in your home. Sounds like a good trade-off to me. by the way, for what it is worth, no matter what requirements you set down for your difficult child, she won't live up to them and it will just be more fighting and drama. At least that has been our experience. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
