[quote=Anonymous]High school is over in what, 3-3.5 months? I wouldn’t drive her away over a reluctance to do chores. I suspect it’s more that she wants to be treated like an adult rather than you running the show. Why not take the time before college to bring her in on the planning and decision-making…deciding what’s for dinner, when to grocery shop, when to eat out, when/where/how long to go on vacation? Being an adult isn’t all paying bills, it’s getting to decide which bills to take on. There’s a tremendous freedom in that.[/quote]
