[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would give her my pitch ONCE along with my vote of confidence that she’s basically an adult now, I trust her to make the right decision for her, and I support her no matter what she chooses. As part of that, I would point out that she should consider how she will feel about Davison if they break up.

The. I wouldn’t say another word, and I would be enthusiastically supportive no matter her choice. [/quote]

I actually quite dislike this advice What can your daughter independently afford? My guess is nothing.  How great were all your love affairs and decisions at 17/18? My guess is you are glad there weren't a lot of photos or documentation of that time.  [b]These "adults" are far less adult than even we were at this age; so sheltered as most of them have been.  [/b]I believe in not only strong parental advice but parental veto. Its the parental money.  Parents can consider child wants and preferences but kiddo still a parasite. Unless they are like me and put themselves through college in which case, follow their lead. Not many of me in this generation (including my own).[/quote]

Okay. Every generation thinks that.[/quote]
