[QUOTE="Fran, post: 73838, member: 3"] <span style='font-size: 11pt'>Terry at least your child is 10yrs old. My difficult child is a gadget guru in a big way. A year ago he wanted to buy "stuff". We said "get a job". Now he works but we say "pay bills first". His complaint was that we told him to work for what he wants but now that he does he still can't buy what he wants because of bills. What's the point of working?" It makes sense in his somewhat immature mind. It's also a dependent mentality. We told him "welcome to the real world". [img]:rofl:[/img] He is 23 and he still spends every extra saved penney without long term planning. </span> [/QUOTE]
