[QUOTE="Kjs, post: 258806"] OMG - that's MY older son. 26, unemployed, very grumpy. Was difficult child's idol. Was his hero. But has been grumpy, snippy just plain mean to everyone. I try to understand that his self esteem is down being unemployed and recently dumped by girlfriend. difficult child says he is just a jerk. older son also thinks we coddle difficult child. he doesn't believe that ADHD is a real thing, nor does he believe he has Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD). said I made him this way because I always worry. He thinks difficult child makes it all up and we feed off of it. Makes things worse. Hang in there. Believe me, trying to explain to the 26 year old only caused more problems. It is easier to just tell difficult child that his brother is going through a rough time right now. however I am worried about older son too. He seems so angry, mean, sad.... but he needs to get a job. Even if it means McDonalds. He won't do that. So, no car, no job, no girlfriend, no money. [/QUOTE]
