[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]You're lucky she's not a deadbeat.[/b] If she's responsible, ask her to take on more chores to help her prepare for solo living. Did she like the college and fail out? Or was she unhappy and left? [b]I don't think today's society does a great job at helping people figure out what is meaningful in life.[/b] Remember that for most of human history, your daughter's role would have been wife, mother, homemaker. However you feel about that, those roles are more intuitive than a modern career path.[/quote] DP She is a deadbeat, failure to launch, whatever you want to call it. It's not society's job to help her figure out a meaningful life. It's literally her parent's and her responsibility. OP , you need to ask her to support herself of she is not meeting your requirements. I.e, if you don't work towards a career, I'm not paying for living expenses, etc.[/quote]
