[quote=Anonymous]I know a LOT of families where the older child was left to their own devices and the youngest daughter (always a daughter) was coddled. In every single case the daughter ends up marrying a guy who took care of her 100%. Quitting her job or working very sporadically (like, selling crafts on etsy) even before kids. That looks great to the parents ("now we don't have to worry!") Until the marriage fails. I really think you need to give her tough love and let her ride this out. She has to try and find a job. I worked some terrible jobs in college and some cushy ones. Because if you don't she will remain a princess and it will stop being cute sometime in her mid 30s.[/quote]
