How can I get a lazy, unmotivated friend to look for a job? Blunt answers please.

I’ve had it up my wits with my best friend. She lies about looking for a job when she hasn’t, she’s lazy, sits in the house all day, watches cartoons and preschool shows. She takes advantage of her parents and takes takes takes. Her parents have been pushing her to get a job and the girl is 30 for crying out loud! She graduated from college and got a great degree. There’s a lot of places hiring if she’s not even trying. I even encourage her to look for a job. Her parents ask if I can talk to her and straighten her up because she’ll listen to me and she gives them a hard time and won’t listen to them. They told me she yells and screams at them I would cry. They’ve threaten to kick her out or to get her to find a new place if she doesn’t start looking for a job. She issues her disability (Asperger’s Syndrome) as an excuse and she can do SO MANY THINGS! She’s worked before so she has no excuse! I know I can’t make her do anything but I’m tired of her lying and being lazy.

She's depressed. Get her to talk to a teledoc. It's cheap.
