[QUOTE="klmno, post: 490340, member: 3699"] That's a tough position, Crazy. I've never been in those shoes- not yet anyway- but I can see your predicament. My guess is that the economy being so bad and help being unavailable is playing into this situatiion a lot more than than when you had to show tough love with your oldest. Personally, I think the economy is so bad now that families are forced to pull together almost like they had to during the depression- when some had to have 2 to 3 generations sharing a house just to be able to keep a roof over everyone's head. Having a difficult child that needs to learn to be responsible for him/herself complicates tthat quite a bit. It's not even feasible for you to say you'll let the kids live with you, but not her. I wish you luck in whichever decision you make. [/QUOTE]
