Yeah - working on THAT one here (see my last comment). I can't control if she drinks and says and does stupid things, but I can control what I do in response to it, be it ask her to leave, pile the plastic liquor bottles in the drive and have a bonfire, etc... In other words, I can only choose how to respond and what actions I take - right? ;-)
