[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 523135, member: 84"] Welcome to the board. (((hugs))) First, I have to say I think someone fed you some bull about the you have to be financially responsible for her until she is 21. Never heard of such a thing. 18 is an ADULT in all senses of the word, including financially the only exception is college funding (which in my opinion is screwy anyway) You can most certainly "kick her out". Although you might have to do a legal eviction......a lawyer can help you with that and many parents here have been forced to do it. Her taking her medications when she remembers is going to make her behavior much worse......and honestly, it's down right dangerous, especially the seizure medications. I wonder if you can get the doctor to help you explain this to her in no uncertain terms? I'm not just talking behavior/mood wise I'm talking in dangerous to her body chemical wise. It's important she take the medications as ordered OR wean off per docs orders, not just take them here and there. Others have personally dealt with the issue of evicting an adult child, so I'll let them give you the advise on that. Again welcome, and I'm sorry you needed to find us. ((hugs)) [/QUOTE]
