I need good, solid, valid reasons why it's a bad idea for my 19 yr old step-daughter to move in with her 24 yr old boyfriend. She's away at college and met this yahoo of a guy whom her mother and I really don't care for. I realize she's 19 and can make her own decisions, and I'll just have to live it, but please help me come up with some really good, decision swaying reasons why she should not do this. Also reasons why the 5 yr gap in their ages is not a good thing either. I'm really trying to help her from making really stupid life mistakes, and I really need some ammo to drive the point home. I have my reasons, but they don't seem to hold any weight.
Any and all answers considered. Can you please please help me?

basically, just sit down with your daughter and tell her how you really feel. ask her if she is really so secure with this guy that she wants to live with him, all day everyday. ask her how much she really loves him. but in the end, you have to let her make her own decisions. just love and accept her, no matter what she does. let her make her own mistakes. shell learn from them, even if she does get her heart broken. good luck!
