[QUOTE="cakewalk, post: 292864, member: 7060"] Yep, he's an adult, which means you both have options. Your house, your rules. If he doesn't like it, he [U]can[/U] leave. That's the hard and scary part, I know. You aren't legally responsible for him anymore. He can stay and be respectful, ambitious (well, that's a stretch for most difficult child's), and contribute or he can walk. As heavenly as that may sound on a bad day, that's another difficult road of emotions. Just remember, with other soon-to-be adults in the house, if you allow sleepovers for difficult child, the others will expect the same options down the road. I'm sorry you're struggling today.
