Ask yourself, "when would I have responded to someone telling me to get the blank out?"
I didnt act the way my step son is acting, no disregard Blondie, but let me fill you in He quit school at age 16 after being expelled now at the 10 day max everytime 22 times Can't keep a fulltime job and only works 20 hours a week Sleeps until 2-4 in the afternoon, Does drugs in and out the house Drinks our liquer and brings it back to the house with his underage friends, we have to chase them out Doesn't clean ANYTHING Refuse to pay $25/ week rent that we would give back to him when he leaves Has stolen from us a multiple times Gave him a car that he has trashed, paid 7 times to get it fixed, paid for first 6 months worth of insurance, paid his fines Leaves a mess everywhere in the house Yells and curses at his mother Throws his cig butts everywhere Has almost burnt the house down by cooking for hours in the early morning a cooking mit Bedroom trashed unless his mother cleans it He is completely difiant, immature, a complete mess, lazy and we are done with it. How long would you last? We spent the whole last weekend finding him an apartment, repainted everything in it, shampooed all the carpets, paid his first month security deposit, paid 5 weeks rent, filled house the apartment with furniture, filled the cabinets with food, filled the refrig and freezer with food, new blinds and curtains, new dishes and silverware, new cooking utensiles, pots and pans, completely set up. The new leesees never showed up to help, I don't think we are bad parents but enough is enough. abr
