[quote=Anonymous]DD was away at college last year and ended up with D's and F's for the year, so came home and attended NOVA this fall semester.  Her grades there are horrible as well.  Her huge problem, which she has had all her life is procrastination.  It is downright pathological, she just CANNOT motivate herself to stay on top of her assignments.

Our house is nothing but stress and chaos,  I am constantly on her to study and get her work turned in, but to no avail.   I feel that having her live with us is just too stressful and I want her to move out, but there's no way she would be able to afford that.  She does have a part-time job at a bookstore, but even if she stopped taking classes and worked full-time it wouldn't be enough for her to live on her own, even with a roommate.  I've tried to encourage her to join the military, but she's not interested.

I really can't stand having her around anymore but don't know what to do.  What do people with adult children who don't have the means of supporting themselves do?
