[QUOTE="Smithmom, post: 740058, member: 23371"] Guess what I'm saying is look at your expectations. You wouldn't try to potty train an infant cause their body and brain can't do it. You can't expect a 6 yr old to cook dinner. Can't expect an ADHD kid to sit through a 3 hour film. Yes, can expect a 19 yr old to be work toward her future. But not a 12 year old. How mature is she really? Are you being realistic about her maturity? I say this because any 19 yr old unhappy at home is running to find scholarships and schools with dorms miles away. Bugging you for cash to get her an apt. Looking for a job to get money. Anything to get out of the house so she can sit with her computer all day alone. Is she really 19? [/QUOTE]
