[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 687101, member: 18516"] RE, it's so good to hear from you. CONGRATULATIONS on your retirement. It sounds like things have been going really well for you. It sounds like your daughter is doing so much better. Wonderful that your granddaughter is doing so well. I'm glad you decided to continue with your trip and completely understand not wanting your daughter to stay in your house alone. As for her housing situation. It's always a gamble when you have roommates. The fact that she is showing progress would make me more willing to help. Of course it's always such a fine line when dealing with our d_c's. I don't know what your financial situation is and that dictates how much you might be willing to help. When my son got out of prison my husband and I knew he couldn't live with us so we purchased a small home. The idea and hope was that our son would get a job and eventually start paying us rent, then after so many years of son doing well, we would help him buy the house from us. Well it didn't work out so well. We still have the house and have rented it out for the past 8 years. If you did choose to do something like this you can always have a management company be the middle man, that way your daughter would not have to know that you own the house. I don't know if that is something you might consider. Again, it's such a fine line. I feel if they are putting forth honest effort then helping is helping and not enabling. There's also those Tiny Houses!! (I watch too much HGTV) Enjoy your trip and your visit with your mom. 91 years is something to celebrate! [/QUOTE]
