[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 722190, member: 4040"] She's over 18. If she doesn't want to take the bus, she can either wait it out or walk it out. I have to agree with Copa, your daughter has too much power. Speaking as a former retail manager? I wouldn't hire her. For anything. A big red flag for me was someone over 18 who hadn't finished high school/no GED with no work history. It shows an inability to take initiative and also a lack of follow through. If she is truly ill enough to be on disability, then she needs to apply. If living with you is not a forever option, you need to hold her feet to the fire and make it uncomfortable enough for her to make a change. She won't change if she doesn't have to. Change is uncomfortable and it hurts. I can't say what will work with your daughter; I know that I was hard on mine because she needed to know that the world could care less what your issue is, you need to deal with it somehow. in my humble opinion, she needs a hard dose of "Grow Up."
