[QUOTE="onmyknees, post: 104377, member: 4296"] Thanks for all the great responses. Marg...you have some fantastic ideas. I think you have done such a great job! She has been told several months ago that I will not do her laundry, so well, she just wears dirty clothes. She hasn't washed clothes since...I guess it won't kill her. She does like to cook and used to be with me in the kitchen all the time. I honestly can't see her planning a meal...her add is extremely bad. But, I will try giving her some room to fail or succeed. The money situation just baffles me...she can't tell me one thing she spent the money on except some fast food. I think that the plan you have with the bank is great. I need to try something like that, or her financial life will be a huge mess when she's on her own. Last night was another drama filled evening. She went to a friends house and when I picked her up I agreed to get her a movie for the weekend. So on the way to the video store she decided the ONLY movie she wanted was "Superbad"...rated R and not something I would want her to watch. She threw a hissy and I told her to get out of the car and she relented and so I guess I won that battle. Mom 1: difficult child 10000000000...lol I just feel completely overwhelmed and with everything and I shut down. It's obviously not solving anything, so I really need to buck up and face this. My difficult child will not say a word to hubby. It's really sad. The counselor wants him to work on their relationship and says this will solve a lot of our issues. I can't see that happening anytime soon, but he's trying. She secludes herself every waking minute from him. As for the sass, I will try to let it roll off my back...I'm hypersensitive (like difficult child), so thanks for the words of wisdom on that matter. I have to remember it's all part of her manipulation. Thanks again everyone! [/QUOTE]
