advice on post grads returning home again
      11/07/2008 17:35

Hi all.
My daughter has just graduated in May and returned home to live after 3 years away. She got a very good degree but has no idea what to do with it. She went on holiday in June and has come back and I think is fed up with life here again with us and not having the freedom she had at university. She is moody and doesnt seem to know what to do, lazing around in her dressing gown til lunchtime. There have been a few arguments but I am trying, unsuccessfuly I have to admit, to bite my tongue. Has anyone else experienced this and if so, how long does it go on for. My husband and I never think alike when disciplining them as children so mine have grown up to view me as an "ogre" and him as "dear old dad".
Any advice welcome !
Thanks.
