[QUOTE="Ironbutterfly, post: 677102, member: 19951"] Can you tell us how many hours your daughter works? Where is the Father of the baby? Is he paying child support? First, I think you and your husband need to talk and get UNITED on maintaining the household, what to charge daughter based on her income and any child support income. DO not ask what she can pay once you find out how much she makes. Never give them that opportunity. YOU and Husband say "Starting next week we expect you pay 100.00 a week". We expect you to pick up after yourself and your baby. YOU will respect us in our home or you can find other living arrangements. YOU have to stand your ground now because if you don't it will only get worse. YOU will find yourself being intimidated by her and still walking on eggshells. One time our middle son came home from work (age 18) and lit into me over washing his shirt because it was his golfing shirt and he was going golfing. He was cussing and swearing and slamming doors. While he was in taking a shower, I grabbed his clothes and put them in trash bags then sat at the kitchen table and watched him open the back door to find his clothes there. He said what the hell. I said " You will not come home and talk to me this way, take your crap and find some place else to live. He took his stuff. Hour later he called me and said Mom I am sorry I was disrespectful my girlfriend told me on the way home from work she cheated on me. I was angry and took it out on you. He never disrespected me again. Children are like sharks, they can sense fear in their parent, they taste the blood in the water. They know when you are afraid to call them on their behavior or threats to leave. Never let them see you afraid to not follow through. [/QUOTE]
