[QUOTE="1905, post: 538969, member: 2668"] Let her go, give her your blessing, but not one extra thing. She'll never get disability. Let her live the poor lifestyle for a while. SHE WILL HATE IT! Let her have nothing and soon she'll come to the conclusion that she wants to go to college. She'll see for herself how hard life truly is. College right out of hs is not for everyone. Some kids are just not mature enough to handle it and don't do well. It's fine that she takes a year off, then when she finally does go, it'll be something she'll truly want and will appreciate it. Just don't give her anything-not money, not even the phone. Let her come up with her own way to pay, she won't like not having you pay for her stuff, she isn't used to that and it will be one step closer for her to realize she'll be poor if she doesn't go. Take back the phone. [/QUOTE]
