[quote=Anonymous]My sister never launched. She has a constellation of mental illnesses. The rest of us have. We feel bad for my sister and my parents. I wouldn’t say they “allow this” as much as they don’t know what else to do. Therapists and programs can only help so much. Sometimes it is a matter of getting the right meds and the right dose. Looking at her or even talking to her you would not know unless you talked for an extended time. She will say she is just back home taking a break until she figures out her next move (she’s been home three years). My parents tell people the same thing. When you see a situation like this, don’t assume the child wants to stay home or the parents want them there. Sometimes it is just the best solution that they all have to deal with. [/quote]
