[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I moved out at 18 when still a senior and I still have a great relationship with my mom. I think it’s normal to chafe at that age. Tell her you love her, she can always come home, especially if she ever feels unsafe, and wish her the best. [/quote] Agree. I think OP has two options here: 1) Let her move out, but make sure she knows you still support and love her, and will go to graduation, help her move into her dorm, etc. 2) Remove all curfew and expectations at home and ignore bad behaivor like not doing dishes. If the issue is *actually* the chores then make some attempt to negotiate with her over it. Maybe there's a chore she would like to take charge of (cooking once a week? groceries?)[/quote]
