[QUOTE="Andy, post: 164867, member: 5096"] I keep telling my easy child, "You can not help anyone your age, a year or two younger than you, and especially anyone older than you." She has become the responsible one of her group of 20 year old plus friends (she is 17 and they call her for help a lot.). When she was 16, these kids called her on a stormy night to help them when they ran out of gas. I told her I would take because she is too young to help on her own. Then I asked, "What is wrong with your friends? There has to be someone's parents or atleast older friends that they should have turned to, not you." Kids who are same age or younger than the person with the problem are almost always enablers. [/QUOTE]
