It's one thing for parents to choose to keep their college student on their health plan, but under the new health care law and with this new case, Rachel might be able to keep forcing her parents to foot the bill for almost eight more years!

I saw in yesterday’s news that she’s returned to her parents’ home. I really DO hope they can work it out. Lots of families go through problems with teens but few are spread all over town, the national media and the internet.
