Hi Freewill,
I totally feel your pain. I'm living the same pain! My daughter is in London right now and calls me to tell me that she only has $19 in the bank and I should go make a deposit! I gave her free rent before she went so she could save (she didn't.) I paid her medical insurance for 2 months because she was going on this trip and had to "save." I gave her a gift of $500 to take with her and she still calls crying and expects me to deposit more money into her account.

She will be 22 in Sept. I'm done. Do as Pat suggests. I'm doing it now. It's high time, but it is so painful at the same time. And my child is in another country!!

As my mom used to say, "you made your bed, you lay in it."

I think it's time. I'm not doing her any favors. I know I made a ton of mistakes while my kids were growing up, but I don't want to keep making mistakes. I really think she resents me more for being such a total sucker!

I REALLY do feel your pain, Freewill. I'm right there with ya!
Take care,
Okie
