Dealing With A Family Member Who Won’t Get Her Life Together
If they must stay, make them set goals
If the family member must stay with you, set strict ground rules and goals. These could be things like, “You can only stay with me if you spend an hour a day applying to jobs” or “You can only stay with me if you go to therapy once a week.” That way, you’ve set up clear expectations and if she breaks them, you have a reason to ask her to leave.
