There are lots of families who can deal with changing the rules as the kid gets older.... or charging for rent, and letting the kid have her own life. But I think most families end up like yours (and mine  I speak from experience) where the parents are still coming from a "This is *our* house, you will go by *our* rules" and the frustrated kid is trying to fight it.

yes, i am living in their house, but i hope to GAWD that their rules don't extent to
outside the house.
as long as i'm not doin the nastay in their house, that shouldn't be a problem.....right?!?!?!?!? and believe me, the LAST place on the planet i wanna go do it is this house.
and i already have a job (the same freakin serving job i've had for 2 ugly years now)....but going full-time does not work out with my job.....the time i leave school vs. the time i have to be at work is off. so, i've gotta figure that out asap. i'll only be able to work 2 days a wk, so unless i get an efficiency/move in with the boy, i'm stuck. i try to convince myself that it'll only be 6 months....but still.
psychtau.....the 24 hour rule sounds lov-e-ly....we'll try that and see how it goes.
thanks, guys! honesty is nice, and i'm glad to know i'm not a total weirdo here.
