I would consider taking the privilege of being out later, if that is what
she has broke the rule. Just remember even though she has problems,
she is close to an adult.
Also maybe get an family membership at an gym.
Go together, or let the kids go.

Thanks so much Donna! She is great about getting home on time and has never broken curfew. As a matter of fact, when she first got her license and I allowed her to drive about 30 minutes away from home, she got lost. I was very worried about her as she was at least an hour late. She turns off her cell phone when she's driving (another good thing that she does) and when she called me to tell me she was lost and the gps wasn't working, she immediately said that she had pulled over. She took a different on ramp to the highway and wasn't really lost, just ended up going about 15 additional miles. And, we do have a family membership to the gym. I go for water aerobics 2-3 times each week and have been trying to do more, but it's hard when she doesn't go with me. The other two will go, but they tend to just run the track or run on the treadmill while I prefer more of what my oldest prefers; weights, elliptical, and rowing.
