[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 486806, member: 6705"] I think the BT is on LSD. Reconsider - deadly weapon in the hands of an out-of-control person? HAHAHAHAHA can we say vehicular manslaughter in the first week? I'm sorry, BT is bonkers. My first job was 2.5 miles from my parents' home. If one of my friends could not give me a ride, or my parents couldn't, I [B]walked[/B]. It was the closest possibility given the town we lived in (sprawling). I was NEVER late for work. I did extra chores at home to compensate for gas money for my parents. I worked about 25 hours a week. If difficult child can find a scholarship, fine. Hopefully one that also pays for books and living expenses. I don't think that's going to happen. BT can help her try, though. Mom and Dad have supported her enough. Now, if she actually shows some continued effort - say from now till she graduates - maybe Mom and Dad could give her $50 a month for extras? If she was 12, the burden might be a little heavy. But 16? Hello, if she wants to do whatever she wants (freedom), then she has to do what she needs to, to have that freedom (responsibility). Fire the BT. I agree with Chaos. [/QUOTE]
