[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 710490, member: 1550"] in my opinion you blamed yourself too much and offered too much to a 36 year old. If our money or housing of these difficult adults really set them on their feet, nobody would be here. Instead, it makes thrm more dependent on us and she needs to seperate from you. She is not that cute little ten year old anymore. She is pushing middle age. We are all different. No 36 year old of mine who still has not grown up would live in my house again. That doesnt mean YOU shouldnt do it. I just havent seen this sad situation help our struggling adult kids ever get independent. It usually ends badly with them continuing to live off of us and often not even helping around the house. They tend to live and behave like entitled teenagets rather than stable adults and most dont seek out help for their problems. This is what I have seen on here for fifteen years. They tend to do better when we pull the plug...at least that is how it seems from all the stories I have read. They often abuse us under our own roof. You probably know what I mean. Although we may not see eye to eye (nor do we have to), i support any decision you make. We all must walk our own path and see where it leads. I hope yours is a good place. [/QUOTE]
