What is it with 18 year old girls these days? I have one who moved out of our house and dropped out of school the day she turned 18, in January. She moved from friend to friend, mooching, for several months, and then told everyone she was pregnant, at which time Dad and stepmom decided to take a hand in things. She moved in with her stepsister, tried to steal stepsister's boyfriend, got shipped out to her grandfather's house. Then grandfather set rules on getting a job and her driver's license, so she decided she wanted to come back to her hometown. Stepdad and I told her that she's have the same rules here, so she's back to living with friends, mooching off them. We've all tried talking to her, trying to make her "see the light," but at this point we've decided all we can do is let her know we're here, ready to help when she decides to start helping herself....but until then, we're just letting her go her own way, praying that she won't have to fall TOO far before she comes to her senses.
