[QUOTE="Bean, post: 329937, member: 8620"] I think they get it, they just have a hard time saying "no" to her. And she's so good at rationalizing reasons to them, that they continue to do it. For instance, she owed someone money for giving her a ride home. So they gave the person the money. She owed another person money for (whatever), and they paid off her debt. They don't understand that the natural consequences (loss of friends) might not be such a bad thing. I think they are starting to come around, though, but still as a grandparent, I'm sure it must be very hard. [/QUOTE]
