[quote=Anonymous]I think it matters what you are doing financially for college-not so that you can control her or be in her business (you should entirely back off on kid type rules since she’s an adult) but at the same time she IS an adult snd part of that is compromising with people, particularly ones that pay for your entire existence. In the real world when you want support and assistance from someone you can’t be not all taking, no gratitude or flexibility. I think it’s fine to stipulate that since she’s a grown up she needs to behave like one and be civil, not a sullen tween. (But don’t use this as an excuse to try to exert age inappropriate control over her.) [/quote]
