[quote=Anonymous]If her friends have cars, that means that in a year or two, your daughter might be away at college rather than under your roof. I love the PP’s fledgling analogy.Your daughter is developing independence and social skills — while she’s still fortunate enough to have a caring safety net. It sounds like she’s developmentally right where she needs to be — and so are you, as you adjust to the changes that come with parenting a young adult. I’m applauding her willingness to sit down with you all for dinner, despite not being hungry. That speaks well of all of you! The only thing I’d do in your place is make sure that it’s clear where the leftovers are, and maybe stock up on healthy snacks — so she can easily grab some real food if she gets hungry later.
