[QUOTE="in a daze, post: 703866, member: 15832"] Hilli, One thing we did was to lock our son out of the house. We gave him 5 $ for lunch and he was to be out of the house during the day while we were gone. He was to go to the library and apply for jobs. He did find a job. He kept it for 6 months, and then started working for his uncle. Now that was not the end of the drama (see my signature) but it was a start. Susie's correct...don't make it real comfortable at home for him. Don't cook for him. No laundry service. Especially if he does no household chores. Oh, and if he gets a job? Take a big chunk of it for "rent". You can keep it to run the household, or put it in a secret account for him. Daze [/QUOTE]
