[QUOTE="Fifi_1123, post: 760737, member: 27897"] Thank you for replying. I have accepted that. it took a long hard five days We have met and talked. it seems she is learning the hard way. she’s always been like that. Has to experience it first I gather. Many of us are like that. I don’t guilt myself for raising her well. If she chooses the wrong path that’s on her snd that’s what I have accepted. I also have accepted and forgiven myself for the past ever so many years of a maladaptive cycle that I see was manipulated by both of us. I am filling my empty nest with options and am moving on. I won’t be a doormat to disrespectful behaviors. and won’t cave and allow my graciousness snd kindness to be abused. We are what we allow. time to stop compensating for her losses in life. Just don’t want her feeling obligated to ANOTHERS Grace Making her dependent upon them and then likely making unhealthy choices based on her helplessness in navigating this world. She has asked for help in getting the college worked out to where she doesn’t lose opportunity. im certainly ok with that. im not ok with giving in and giving a car to use. So she will need all online classes. I won’t give in so that she thinks it’s just another bump. She’s gonna have to her her own rides. Not on my insurance and I won’t take liability of her poor driving choices snd risk taking behaviors. Thanks for the input. best. [/QUOTE]
