[quote=Anonymous]I think she needs clear rules. You will only pay for a,b,c report cards. So if she gets lower you don't pay the next semester. Don't pay her phone bill. You will pay for room and board if her grades are good if not she can move home. Don't give her any spending money. Offer to pay for a good therapist. One that specializes in divorce, when her issues seem to have started. I had a child that was manipulative but isn't any more thanks to great CBT. There was an underlying issue. I would create a "reward system" when you think she is doing th right thing Like mail her a chipotle gift card and just say I am proud of you for trying.. But don't say it is specifically linked to anything. She will freak out but just take the 6 year old out and let her stew.[/quote]
