[QUOTE="dstc_99, post: 605677, member: 15473"] Thanks DF. husband and I both wanted her life to be so much easier. If she would have stayed at home we would probably be killing ourselves to make life free for her. It's almost a good thing all this happened. We were really hoping she would start to value things a little more and learn how to earn things. I think in a way we are doing it for ourselves and in a way we are doing it for society. I'm from a small town and I don't want my dad and mom telling everyone that we aren't supporting our child and therefore they are financially strapped. On the other hand I never see those people and probably wont again. We always dreamed of doing everything for our kids and probably spoiled them too much. husband and I have always agreed though that once they were old enough for jobs they should get one unless they were involved in a sport or activity that made that difficult. difficult child got out of it by cheering. She had practices and games so often it would have been next to impossible for her to hold a job. ON the other hand once she moved out and quit cheer she has had months to find a job and she never did. She would work a few hours a month for my dad but I doubt she applied for anything else. She just wants everything given to her and I think it is time people stopped doing that since she is so ungrateful. Can't stop the family though. [/QUOTE]
