[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 172293, member: 3626"] The first three times my daughter moved out, I had no chance to say a word. She was gone before I could take a breath. This time around, there was a chance to talk to her. Amazingly, the worst thing that happened to her was living on the streets for a few days. No sexual assaults. No beatings. No major drug use (I'm pretty sure they smoked grass and drank but nothing more). I didn't get to meet her roommate before they moved in together. I was not comfortable with that but there was nothing I could do about it, either. All I could do was talk to her. Actually, it was more listen when she talked. If I had voiced my misgivings, she would have tuned out and quit sharing anything. I think we mothers always think the worst. Some of us are lucky and the worst doesn't happen. Sometimes some of it does. Sometimes all of it does. I understand your fears. They were certainly up there with mine. I can't say if you should say something to her or not -- I know for mine that would have been the worst thing to do. She hasn't left yet so there is always the chance they won't end up going or have a fight and he goes and she stays. I'll say a pray that she stays near you. (((((HUGS))))) [/QUOTE]
