[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 292160, member: 59"] We've been telling difficult child to apply for on campus jobs now for a month. I even took her down to the college to fill out all the paperwork necessary to be able to search for jobs. I found the website for her that listed the open jobs, updated her resume, found the new jobs posted and even found one in her dorm in the 24 hour deli. It was like pulling teeth to get her to fill out the application and write a cover letter but we finally got it in the mail. That isn't detaching very well is it? I debated whether I should just ignore it and let her find out she has no money when she got to campus but it was in my self interest to push her to find a job. We don't want to be giving her spending money. I have never known anyone with so little ambition to do anything other than play 007 on XBox or watch tv in the dark with boyfriend. I'm waiting for her to announce that she doesn't want to go to college and leave boyfriend. Nancy [/QUOTE]
