Dear Abby
DEAR ABBY: My husband and I finally got custody of his daughter “Amelia” 15 days before her 16th birthday. She came to us with home-schooling and little socialization. Now she’s 18, and we’ve gotten her on track to graduate, but she has completely changed. She plans to move in with her boyfriend and is skipping school.
My husband feels we can’t get on her case about it, since we’ve had her for only two years. We’ve had three boys who have graduated, and two girls who haven’t yet. We made the boys (his stepsons) go to school every day and live at home until they graduated. We will do the same with our younger girls.
