BigSis said:Dad has tried explaining the long term issues of what she's doing (as he now suffers from many of them, due to not wanting to admit he was different to his mates when he was in his teens and twenties) but she is, like most of us at that age, unable to see that it could happen to her.
Any suggestions you may have would greatly received.
Thanks
