[QUOTE="haywire_house, post: 286684, member: 7673"] Thank you all for the warm welcomes. They are truly appreciated. To quote what everywomen said: "I provide for daily needs, but you have to act like a decent human being in order to get anything special from me." everywomen, I am doing just that with him now. I cut off my "taxi services" just recently since he does not want to get a job at all... he just wants to skateboard and skate through life and to get him to do anything around the house is always a struggle, arguement, whining, etc... and there are always strings attached on his part. He only does something for me when HE wants something. He just cut the lawn for me (after whining & moaning about it ALL morning) & then he wanted me to drive him to the skate park. I said "NO" & he said "Well, I cut the lawn for you" & I said "Well, I washed your laundry". I am so fed up & angry with his disrespect & behavior for me I do not want to waste one drop of gas on his ungratefull a--. I also cut his curfew to an hour earlier til I get more respect from him. He says I hate him. That could not be farther from the truth. I love him so much -- I guess I loved him too much & let him get away with this behavior for so long. I thought he would have grown out of it -- just pueberty, ya know. It's getting worse & worse... he may be almost 16 but acts like a 2 year old. Its ridiculous! & exhausting. [/QUOTE]
