[quote=Anonymous]I don't think these conversations are helping your child, so boundaries are a good idea. Warn her that workday conversations need to be short, tell her what time to call back in the evening, warn her that you are hanging up and then do it. Part of kids growing up is to start to figure things out on their own ... If you aren't available midday then she will likely figure out another coping mechanism for that time. It's not withdrawing support, it's scaling back to foster independence. [/quote]
