[QUOTE="helpangel, post: 532828, member: 7170"] I don't know many adults who get to do what they want - many would like to sleep till noon then watch cartoons till time to go to bed but NO doesn't work like that. PART OF BEING AN ADULT IS getting up when you could really use 5 more minutes (or hours) and you do what you need to do to support & take care of yourself. She has decided she is an adult ok treat her like an adult. Whether charging her rent or not I would write out a lease or living arrangement including what duties around the house she is responsible for and at what time the doors will be locked at night (you don't make curfew sleep somewhere else) I wouldn't dump in a bunch of money on fancy locks or alarms just jam a wedge in under the door at curfew time. My parents took a little different style with me a couple months before turned 18yo I ungrounded myself so when I got home the locks had been changed and my stuff was piled on the porch. [/QUOTE]
