[QUOTE="DDD, post: 576066, member: 35"] Nancy, I'm sending hugs your way and I am also sending unsolicited advice. Please know that I acknowledge that I am not a perfect parent (obviously!) but I really and truly believe that you need to redirect your conversations and stop trying to "teach" her what she obviously either can't learn (I doubt it) or is not ready to learn. Your advice is not going to change her course, my friend. I understand how much you love her but she "knows" the rules. She is choosing not to follow them. I hope and pray that there will be a time when she is "ready" to listen but...not now. I believe she already completely knows what you and husband have tried to teach her. Now she is an adult she will not absorb the message until she is ready to do so. Hugs. DDD [/QUOTE]
