[QUOTE="Lookingforthelight, post: 682763"] Thank you both so much. I'm not sure how to move a post. Help please! Entitled! A word I use regularly to describe her! Yes she's 18. We have moved her out various times since she was 14. We moved her to her bio dads and her grandparents (on more than one occasion) and in the last year she's been booted out and I haven't cared where she's stayed though we moved her belongings to her grandparents. It's the constant I'm sorry, I don't know why I lie, I promise I'll change, I need to get these people out of my life, I want to graduate. And I've heard this countless times and always fall for it! I know this is it though, I cannot have her back. I don't know why her stealing finally did it but it's just not something I can ignore. This is the first time she's done it but I know if she continued living here it wouldn't be the last. There's no remorse. She told me it's not like she took my credit card. Apparently in her eyes that is bad, not stealing money. Ugh. I've talked to her just recently about looking into talking to our family doctor about seeking professional help with respect to her outrageous moods. She won't have any of it. She's fine and nothing is wrong with her ...so she says. She's 18. And I can't do anything. I appreciate what you both have said and you're reassuring me I'm making the right decision and I need to follow through. I'm guilty of feeling bad and letting her back only to have the same outcome over & over. I at this point can only assume she's doing drugs and at the very least is drinking heavily. She comes from a background of alcoholics on her dad's side. We've had the talks, she tells me what I want to hear, I sleep that night, only to learn something knew she's done the next day. I need the insanity to stop. Thank you again. [/QUOTE]
