[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 49119, member: 3626"] Honestly, there is no decision. If or should I say when she gets kicked out, I'll let her come home again. I won't pay for any of her mistakes this time. She'll have to find a way to do that. I will try to guide her towards getting her GED and then, hopefully, job corps or something. As soon as I see that she has some kind of a chance of surviving on her own, she will be leaving this roost. Of that there is no doubt. My problem is that I truly don't want her living with me. I can do without the drama anymore. And I certainly won't tolerate her making the mess she did of her room. However, what I want is irrelevant. I have to be able to live with myself and I could not do that if I thought my daughter were homeless. Please understand that if circumstances were different, my decision would be different. She's not on drugs. She has made some great progress in the past few years in that she's no longer violent, she no longer steals per se -- does still take things she thinks she has a right to but not out and out stealing, the lies are no longer non-stop, she's not promiscuous. She is immature. She is and always will be manipulative and probably always irresponsible. If drugs, violence, theft were still an issue, there is no way I would let her come home again, at least not until I had turned her into the police and let her get a taste of life in jail, but I could not let her be homeless with all the risks entailed in that life.
