[quote=Anonymous]First you choose better words. They are an adult at 18. That’s not something you as a parent get to bestow on your kids. What I guess you’re speaking about is certain privileges. If they want to behave in a certain way that conflicts with your values (eg no drugs in your house/vehicles) or lifestyle (eg 11pm curfew because you start work everyday at 7am), then you explain to them that if they make certain choices there are consequences. And lay out those consequences. [/quote]
