[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 414812, member: 84"] Lucy you're getting there. We didn't get it all figured out at once either. We've all had our Ah HA moments and our *just kick me in the bootie* moments too. My youngest will be 22 in June..........holy crud when did [I][B]that[/B][/I] happen, now I feel old!.........and although I had kids before her, I was still learning things with her that didn't apply to the other two and vice versa. I gave Nichole 3 months notice for her move out date when she was 20. There were no if, ands, or buts. When I gave it to her she didn't even have a job. Not my problem. My mom blew a gasket......I was mean, vicious, and my daughter was going to hate my guts for life. I just ignored her. lol Meanwhile Nichole got a job and moved out by her deadline.........and she talks to me nearly nonstop all day every day. Grandma is not in the trenches with this boy every day. And by the way katie used that same excuse over the jobs. Problem is, yes there is high unemployment out there and people have been looking for a long time.......but most of those people are professionals and the very jobs our difficult children can do are begging for people to fill them. lol [/QUOTE]
