[QUOTE="CrazyinVA, post: 340113, member: 1157"] I understand. I get tired of hearing about Oldest's constant cycle of job loss, eviction, and fights with friends. Then she'll talk of going to school, or even joining the military, both of which are pipe dreams (she can't go to school if she doesn't even make enough money to pay rent, and she can't join the military because of her health problems). It's always some excuse, some "poor me" story. The only up side is, she rarely asks me for help any more. Which in a weird way, makes me even more sad. On one hand I'm glad not to be dealing with those conflicts any longer, on the other, well, her choices aren't getting any better and she seems ashamed of her situation sometimes, yet unable/unwilling to break the cycle.
