[QUOTE="Smithmom, post: 740123, member: 23371"] That's kinda my point. You don't need to make the plan. Her life, her plan. A 19 yr old shouldn't need Dad to make a plan for her. I mean a specific plan for where she wants to live. A career is just a means to money to pay for where she wants to live. Sitting around letting Dad make plans for her should not be something you allow. That's co-dependency. You may make plans for a 10 year old. But by 12 or 14 they are insistent on making their own plans. A parent will help or insist on editing the plans to include homework and things parent puts value on eg family, religion,.. But parent isn't making all the plans at 19. [/QUOTE]
