[QUOTE="wakeupcall, post: 649734, member: 2287"] So now the plot thickens. Difficult Child has lost his license because he refuses to do community service because he doesn't want to be away from girlfriend. Does he not get it that he will be away from her in jail? Ex has basically taken her in and now is moaning about paying for her food, etc. Difficult Child does delivery' so now he has no job. The two of them lay around in ex's house smoking pot and/or cigarettes, eating and watching television while ex works. I'm at a loss and guess there's not a thing I can say to Difficult Child to turn him around, nor anything I can do to knock some sense into ex. I feel so helpless...... At this point, all I do is pay for his phone and I have cut off the internet to it. He doesn't call me, nor text, he's "busy". This is a perfect case of nature vs nuture. His bio father is in prison for the third time, bio mother lives on food stamps, bio sister just gave birth not married at 17. I thought we'd make a difference, especially since we adopted him at birth....sigh. SO incredibly sad.... [/QUOTE]
