[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Being forced to live on my own when I was not prepared set me up for decades of struggling. Supporting yourself and going to school without help is possible, but with parental
assistance it’s a faster process. Give her a chance. But set up timed goals. You married someone that is a parent, that’s lifelong. Grieve what you thought was a release from being involved and support your partner by being humane.

* with limits and realistic goals for this young girl. Take her to a financial planner and get her set up well. Help her understand basic life skills or at least ask her father to. This will prevent her from being dependent or asking for help much longer in life. My parents flung me at the world and told me to figure it out (not everyone can without guidance) [/quote]

This adult has been living with mom for 22 years.  She needs to grow up, get a part time job, go to community college and be responsible.  She's fleeing form Mom's house as she doesn't want to follow the rules.  This is not your situation at all.[/quote]
