[quote=Anonymous]You've barely had ANY step-parenting responsibilities so far, so yeah, I think that you do need to step up and realize that this phase of her life might require more from you. But I agree with other posters that your DH and his ex need to decide together how to approach the situation. It sounds like she's depressed or otherwise struggling. I would let her move in contingent on #1, getting therapy; #2, getting a job, any job; #3, staying for a limited time period. For whatever reason, your husband's child is not able to be self-supporting. This is a big problem, and you can't expect your husband to play no role in solving it, including a limited time period of her living at his home. [/quote]
