[QUOTE="Nature, post: 687247, member: 19011"] Hi, Congrats on your retirement and I agree with the others about not cancelling your vacation. As for allowing to let your daughter stay in your home - that is a tough decision. I believe it's based on whether or not you have regained trust in her again. What has she said about this? Is she understanding and not challenging your choice and ready to face responsibility for her past? I'm not sure what the answer is but I have faith that you yourself are a much stronger person and have grown a lot through your own experiences with family members that deep down you know the answer to the question you ask. I wouldn't allow my son to stay in my home any longer and even with recovery I would think there would be too many temptations to fall back into without supervision while on the other hand your daughter has shown increased awareness of her past wrongs and has made strides to better herself. So what to do? I would continue not to enable but also allow myself to be flexible without feeling that I was falling back into a pattern of enabling again by helping her make the right choice of where she will stay. Your post also gave me hope that one day I will again find peace , thank you for that. [/QUOTE]
