Quote From: sungloblue I have a 20 yr SD that has no direction. She has been out of high school for 2yrs .We have spent thousands of $$$ for her to go to school ,she is a very smart girl that wants everything NOW. She has dropped out of 2 schools now and still has no clue . She says she is an adult but she is acting like 16 . How can you help guild a 20 yr old to a career and grow up ???
She sounds like a Brat that is now under your care. Let's say one thing now - she is an adult - aint nonething you can do about that. According to Doc Phil she has this disease that's called 'entitlement'. She also could be fighting or hating herself and not knowing it, and when you fight with yourself - you always loose. She also could hate the world and authority. Can the two of you talk or do you come across as a Drill Sargent! What about her Dad. Does she treat you with respect - how does she treat her dad? She may not have found her way and be struggling with that. I am 58 and I remember how it was when I was only a little older than her. I had to begin liking myself before I could see clearly.
