[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 711637, member: 1963"] KSM. How can she "adult", if you are doing the "adulting" for her? Tell her what needs to be done, then get out of the way and let her choose to do it...or not. Seriously. Her recruiter will tell her what she needs to do to clear this up in order to enter the Marines, assuming she will be able to do so. The fact that she is repeatedly blowing off meeting with you tells me that she isn't ready, whether because she is having second thoughts, or because she is just too immature and caught in a pattern of getting away with things/having others bail her out. Let her deal with whatever consequences result from her actions. That's how one learns how to to "adult". (and "verbing" nouns makes me cringe.) [/QUOTE]
