[QUOTE="ksm, post: 759627, member: 12511"] Maybe just tell her something like, it sounds exciting, and ask how she thinks she will manage to get there, and take some of her belongings. Dont play devils advocate, but ask about plans. How will she pay for it? Let her try to figure out details. Maybe that would encourage her to get a job and save $. And get a license. I would not drive her to the west coast... because then you would feel like you would have to rescue her when things go bad...and at this point, it will go bad because she is not prepared to move and luve on her own. I've found that if I don't try to discourage my kids plan, but let them figure it out, they usually find something easier to do! I refuse to pay for their wild schemes... ksm [/QUOTE]
