[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 731282, member: 15032"] This is a hard situation! How long has she been like this? I think you need a plan. I would most likely consult a therapist that could help me come up with a plan - I'm assuming you and her dad are on the same page which is half the battle. Obviously you probably won't just kick her out now or you would have done that but you need to set some boundaries and deadlines and then follow them. Give her 30 days to find a full time job, etc. and go from there. Maybe even a written contract would do. Nothing changes if nothing changes. She needs the boundaries as much as you do or she will most likely not do anything differently than what she does now. It's working for HER! She has all her needs met and then some. [/QUOTE]
