its always been a little bumpy between me and my daughter,I like to think its because we are so much alike...but over the last few years she appears lost.she can't hold a job down, she thinks the world owes her everything and that she is the princess...but the princess has no money, she begs and borrows from others.i cannot afford to keep her in our house as I have other children dependent on me.i understand it is difficult to find a job but there are jobs out there she just chooses not to do them...the way she speaks to me is breaking my heart..her language and the way she disrespect me and my partner is taking a massive toll on our relationship...ive tried to talk to her and guide her and even helped to find jobs.but all I get back is screaming and horrendous language...im always in the wrong...please please help me

Have you suggested it's time she moved out? That living under your roof as an adult has different rules. She needs to earn and pay her way, and grow up doing it.

I suggested many times but she isn't working and will have no where to go...she knows the rules and boundaries which is slowly getting through to her.but the way she is constantly talking to me realy breaks my heart.especially when I'm working so hard so I can pay to keep her under my roof...

Does she go down the job centre? Does she sign on fir benefits? Has she applied for a council flat?
