what does this mean?
Processing... ..... .... ....
Conclude:
Give her some breathing space.
Like you mentioned, she from a single parent family, things are not easy for single parent families. She can go out so often because her mum can't afford to lose her (her mum feels safe when she's with church friends only). She can use the phone often cos she can't afford to. Sometimes to show your love and care is to give the person some breathing space when necessary. Not totally ignore her, but contact her when she is avaliable. Gals from single parent families will tend to look for help less cos they don't want the pity from others feeling.
Bottomline, don't push her. Just let her know that you will be there for her when she needs you. This way, she might appreciate more rather than you kept wanting her to go out, chat on the phone etc...
