[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 656894, member: 11791"] THIS is a rational approach. Not a kick-out, but help spreading wings. Whether she flies or not, is up to her. But as a parent of kids not quite that old, I'm already looking down the road - because mine have challenges that mean they will not be independent at 18 or 19 or 20. At some point, they need to become independent, OR at least independent of ME (some kids need "system" supports, and that's fine). Put this in the positive. She IS working. Full time, it sounds like. She is 27. It's time to take the next step(s). Maybe increase what she is paying for rent, and put that aside as the security deposit etc. for getting her own place? [/QUOTE]
