By allowing that, you are reinforcing her dependence upon all who are around her. These kind of people are so dependent prone that they will never grow up as long as someone is willing to pander to their weakness.

She should be shown other options and shown the door.

Just my opinion.
Oh believe me.. thats long over!!! The only reason she was allowed in my home in the first place is her husband tried to kill her and she had a 4 mo old baby whom we took care of for a long time while she was in the hospital... then it just continued... Right before she left.. she left us with the baby... then went and found a shelter.. we relocated her shortly after and told her she had to make choices or the baby had to go to cps... she has the baby now.. which probably wasnt the best choice but... due to the circumstances we had no choice either! But yes I was a major push over then.. there was already too much drama in my life to where I couldnt see the good from the bad! We learned real quick to say no when we were forced to take the pastorate there and everything else happened!
