SD is 21 yo and wanted us to give her $1000.00. When I said no, she said that if I don't stop questioning and saying "no" to what she wants, she is not going to involve herself in family activities. SD says it hurts her too much when I put limits on her. She got very upset and started screaming at her dad saying that I do not have a right to control the finances. Sd believes that she should get what she wants, especially if we come back from an outing without her. We pay for her college, car insurance & gas, rent & groceries. She doesn't want to work. Dad pays for everything for her, he never says no. Should I stop trying to place boundaries and apologize to her. She doesn't want to come to the house to see her 11 year old half brother if I am home, until I stop imposing boundaries. My dh agrees with me and now she won't speak to him either.
