<p>There’s a lot that’s not clear here. Parents think she’s on drugs; she says she’s not. Parents have more than one house but are getting extensive financial aid for her college. Parents let her look at far away schools and now have doubts about that (maybe because they think she’s using drugs?).</p>
<p>Although I believe that it’s generally not right to change the rules in the middle of the game, these parents may have good reasons (or at least reasons that look good from their perspective) to do so. Maybe they are having financial problems that their child doesn’t know about, or maybe they have the “feeling” (like annasdad mentioned) that something is wrong and don’t want her far away. We have only read one side of the story.</p>
