My daughter is not reading in college and comes back to her room at 3 am everyday please help

She could just be immature and not ready for college. She could be struggling with mental health and/or substance abuse. She could be stressed out by the rigor of her courses and turning to partying for relief. Or it could be adolescent rebellion. Or any combination of these factors. She probably gets defensive when confronted. Would she listen to you if you suggested that she meet with someone in the counseling center? I agree that if she is uncooperative and failing her courses, you shouldn’t continue to fund her. But the most important thing is to try to determine what is causing this behavior.
