[QUOTE="compassion, post: 225605, member: 6393"] JLady, Thanks. I do try to guide and listen.She tends not to tell me though. That is why I check her MySpace and phone daily. Boundaries is yes, Terry she is, in my opinion very codependent and people pleaser. So, try to get her to mind her own business. I have tried and still try to limit her. She was over at her friend's E. last week and just found out a 19 year old boy came over, there were also fights over my daughter's attention to E others were used to having more attention from. So, it is not just a guidance issue , it truly is boundaries when there are people involved. Yes, Terry it does seem petty. I guess what I was trying to say is I am trying to support her to not give into peer pressure so much. I find I can do it fine at home for the most part, I do limit computer/social networking,etc. When I am not around though, she does not say no, set limits, that what I meant by boundaries. She for years gets involves in other's business. Like the example I gave of calling a boy to ask him if her friend was mad at him. I do try and get her to focus on herself, to check in frequently and listen to what is happening. [/QUOTE]
