Hello  Ozkiwi,

*welcome*

Can you share with us about more of the background here? 18 is an adult, and I moved out on my 18th birthday,  but I was working while going to school.  It sounds like she's choosing only one.  Given emotional limitations,  she may not be able to handle that.  This may work for some families,  but what specifically is the impact on your family,  and what other behaviors are you struggling with? We'd love to hear more about how best we can support you
