[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hmmmm. I think I'd tell this was unacceptable/object, and that rules and chores are not because she's a kid but because she's a part of the family unit and everyone in the family unit has obligations. And then point out that yours (parents) are to feed, clothe, assist with education, hers are chores and whatever, and if one of the parties wants to shirk their duties then there are consequences, natural and imposed. I'd do a little further letcuring and then let her know that if she decides to move out then your obligation to provide food, shelter, clothing, education, and $ for things like phone, activities, college prep, etc., etc. also ceases. And then let her decide.[/quote] ^^And to be clear, I wouldn't threaten not to support her at college, just while she tries this experiment with her friend. I would not allow her access to your car, payment or not.[/quote]
