[QUOTE="WiseChoices, post: 755543, member: 24254"] Dear Blue, You owe it to yourself to be only self-supporting, being responsible for your finances Your daughter must learn to handle her own financial obligations .She will not learn how to do that as long as you help her. You won't be around forever and your daughter has to be able to survive on her own. So the sooner you stop, the sooner she will learn .You are actively contributing to her inability to take care of herself, so look at saying no as something you will do for her as well. I would offer to help with making a budget or teaching how to handle bills etc IF adult child wishes to learn from you and IF you feel comfortable in that role . Otherwise, there are local programs , colleges etc where your daughter can learn what she has failed to learn up to this point . [/QUOTE]
