I think that if I can schedule my training for the reserves for July and August she may be given the chance to experience what it's like to live independently. I would be gone for 7-8wks so she would have to take care of everything on her own...maybe that's what she needs. Plus the time apart may give her a cxhance to miss me. I'll know whether I can make that happen or not probably next weekend. I think either way if I can go away when I get back I'll have a good idea of whether this will work out or not.
