I guess it's too much to ask W to grow up and deal with the issues with D so she CAN live at home?
Yeah, it is too much.
Hi FLTC!!!!
Congratulations on the Bronze Star. That's quite an accomplishment.
Well I have 2 girls so I know how challenging that can be. Do you have any other family that your daughter can live with where she would feel comfortable?
I know New Hampshire like the back of my hand having summered there my whole life and having grandparents that live there. Let's be real, if your child wants to find trouble she can find it anywhere. Sometimes rural settings are worse because drinking is THE #1 form of entertainment. Seeing she's been through a rough patch with her drinking, I would think that if she could stay off a main campus and go satellite until she gets a little bit more maturity under her belt, the easier it would be for you as a parent. I can see a definite change in my middle daughter with drinking from how she partied her freshman year until now in her senior year. In contrast, my youngest just turned 19 and she's partying all the time. I know because I get drunk dialed when she does. Believe me, if she's on her own, no matter where she goes, she will be faced with this.
