[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 39452, member: 3647"] Oh, yeah. You could be me, a few years ago. Same deal. EVERYTHING was a major crisis with daughter. If there was no real crisis, she invented one. Failing classes left and right. And she was "such a good kid". Church youth group, taught vacation bible school...and she had aspirations to be a child psychologist. She messed around so bad the last year or so of school, cutting class, running away, stealing the car, put in inpatient twice, she barely graduated. It pains me to watch her now. She's been out of school a year and no longer desires college. She is living with her boyfriend and is happy working at a fast food joint. I had the same issues that you are facing, back when she was in school: Am I too involved? Should I back off completely? Is that irresponsible? I've lived through it and I still don't have the answer. Sounds like you have a good game plan. I do hope it works for ya. Man, these kids...they think we were born old... [/QUOTE]
