[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] OP - Sorry, but it was confusing with a second parent I guess talking about a daughter pregnant. My advice still stands that you and DD have to find a way to communicate without you trying to plan all options for her and based upon your expectations; but alsowith her living in your home and saying she will basically do just what she wants to do. A 3rd party professional working with both of you might be able to devise a path that works for both of you. To be treated as an adult, DD has to realize Itnis not a one-way street of her wishes only. [/quote] There are two year residential college programs for disabled high school graduates where she could take some light classes, and socialize and continue growing up with her peers. Or to even learn a trade. https://blog.ed.gov/2015/09/college-programs-for-students-with-disabilities-are-changing-culture/ https://www.ucmo.edu/thrive/ Would you say she is developmentally disabled?
