Georgina, welcome to the program.

0:14.0

Hi, thank you for taking my call. Thank you. What can I do for you?

0:21.0

Well, my daughter is a, she's a young adult. She's graduated from college. She's married.

0:32.0

She is also recently inherited a pretty good amount of money. And they are just, you know, trying to decide on a house. She and her new husband.

And her, we, I, we feel like my family, her parent, you know, her side of the family feel like we have just protected them for making about a half a million dollar mistake because they had made an offer on a home that just had so many problems and issues.

2:10.0

And you gave your opinion, she's a married woman.

Yeah, but that way you kind of lose your daughter if you push too hard to make her feel incompetent.

2:35.0

And just trying to protect her.

2:37.0

You're making her feel incompetent as she told you to stop giving advice as she told you that.

2:48.0
