[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Look, the situation is what it is. She has 30k she can decide what to do with. The rest is up to her. That’s not going to change unless she gets a scholarship.

Mostly, I want to know what to say to her to get her to stop lashing out at her step siblings and my H. I’ve tried talking to her and get nowhere.[/quote]

I won’t address a lot of what’s already been said here.  If you want your DD to stop lashing out, I would figure out what more you can do (loans in your name, changing your budget and making personal sacrifices to save more money for her college, and asking DH if he would be willing to pay a portion of her college or loan you some of the money at no-interest and you can pay him back over time.) And then I would sit down with her and show her what you have done to try and make her situation better.  And I would show her some empathy and let her know you understand why she feels the way she does and I would cut her some slack.[/quote]

Or her daughter can cut the crap and get no money.[/quote]
