[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 327369, member: 3907"] Shari, another vote for "not mean". It sounds like easy child 2 needs to experience the natural consequences of her actions (or inactions, in this case). That inability to fend for herself...if you don't nip it in the bud now, it will just get more entrenched and be that much harder to break later on. The day I saw my then-16-year-old difficult child ask husband to tie his shoes for him, and husband DID IT FOR HIM, was the day I realized we needed to make some drastic changes. Don't wait until you get to that stage. Now's the time. Sending a coat of polish for your Warrior Mom armour. This battle's tough and unpleasant. Refusing to enable her anymore is the first step.
