Hello Kathy,

One of the first things I learned when I moved out on my own (Over 20
years ago now) was that one can force me to do anything I don't want
to do!!  So you might think about that the next time you feel you are
being forced to do something.  You are very much an adult now, but
there will always be those who will try and make you feel other wise.
I think you will find the more you are able to say no to those others
say you should do, the more you will grow into the person you want to
be.

So hang in there Kathy!!  I think you're gonna do just fine for your
self!!

See ya-Gary
