[QUOTE="everywoman, post: 81988, member: 1436"] Welcome ravengal. You have found a place where people are willing to listen and offer advice. Because your daughter is 18, you can't control much anymore. It looks like you have done all you can do short of making her leave the home---and I know how hard that is when your complaint is really over her decisions about her life! You have to let go of what you can't control and turn her life over to her. You may not like her choices, but it is her life. She is now an adult by law---many of our children take a long time to grow up emotionally---it may take her awhile longer. Remember---she's not fully baked yet! But...as for you...let go. Let her make her mistakes and live with the consequences. No car---her problem. No high school diploma or GED---her problem. No money---her problem. [/QUOTE]
