My DD has never been very academic and failed to get very good grades at school due to mild learning problems, but she went to college and got a level 3 in health and social care. After college she met a lad and she was besotted with him and ran away to live with him for a year cutting me off totally.
In that year she didn't look after herself and put on a lot of weight and had nits in her hair etc and spent most of that year just staying in the lads room.
My family and I eventually got to bring her home where I've been trying to get her back to a routine, tried to get her to retake maths and English but she wouldn't listen to the FE tutors and hasn't progressed. Anyway I've tried to get her into work, she got a cleaning job at a local care home 2 days a week which she said she enjoyed but now they have let her go after they said she wasn't cleaning up to their standards.
She's now split up with her boyfriend and is now hanging out with some other friends, she's staying out of my way. Last week there was a cleaning job at the local pub a couple of mornings a week she went for the job and got it. I thought great, she was meant to start the next day but didn't go in as she said she had a sore throat!!!
The pub have got someone else now but I was fuming with her, as she spent all day in bed talking to her mates.
I'm really at my wits end now, shes not bothering to look for work (I know there's not much out there but there are some.) Shes vile and abusive in her texts to me and I think why don't I just kick her out??? Anyone got any words of advice????
