[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 622437, member: 1550"] In our society, we have to support our children until they are eighteen and most of our kids are well taken care of. The majority of parents are happy to help their over eighteen kids too, even though they don't have to, if they are going to college and making good choices. However, neither we nor our children have government stipends to help us along and sometimes the kids have to do some of the work, like getting part-time jobs. Also, if over eighteen children choose to do drugs, drink, sit on the sofa doing nothing etc. it is up to us if we want to support that lifestyle. The over eighteens know this. I doubt if this case will change anything (sigh). Kathy, I can't imagine any of my kids doing this, not even 36. I can't even imagine any of them THINKING of doing it. But if one of them did, I would never let that child come back home. It would take a long time to build trust again too. Maybe the parents just want the story to go away. I can't believe there is peace and harmony at home after what she tried to do. [/QUOTE]
