I am working with a couple who has a 25 year old daughter who has lived at home without a job since graduating from college 2 years ago. Their daughter works with a therapist and has been diagnosed with anxiety, ADHD, and Bipolar II. She also smokes marijauna mixed with nicotine every 2-3 hours. Because of her angry/volatile reactions, they accommodate her request to not ask her about her job search and all the details associated with looking for a job. Although she occasionally leaves the house to food shop, she mostly stays at home/in her room watching youtube videos on her phone. Can FTL be used when the young adult is using substances regularly throughout the day? What are some feasible responses for parents if their adult child does not meet expectations?
