[QUOTE="Sue C, post: 21223, member: 87"] Well, Melissa called the bike warehouse on her own! She was told the man in charge was out 'til Monday and she would be called if they want to interview her. Thanks for the advice that I should not be the one to call. I know she needs to be the one to pursue getting a job, but she is dragging her feet. As far as taking away the car and cell phone, I know that husband would NEVER do it. He hates confrontation and he just won't do it. Like I said, he thinks she's going to change and everything will start falling into place once she gets a job. katmom -- I will try to put some of your suggestions into practice. KFld -- There just is no way husband will go to counseling. It was hard enough to get him to go years ago when it was Melissa going and we got 15 minutes out of the hour. skeeter -- Yes, Melissa and I are in the house all day together (I haven't been able to find a part-time job yet). husband works out in the shop on our property and comes in on/off during the day (except on Saturday and Sunday when he works away from the home). I have on occasion left the house, but I feel so mad that I have to do that. Kathy -- Yes, Melissa does act like a 2 yr old. husband and I say that all the time. We tell her that. But it gets us nowhere just talking about it. All talk plus no action equals frustration. I know. Thanks everyone for caring, Sue [/QUOTE]
