[QUOTE="oldmama, post: 467706, member: 12955"] yes I have tried to take away the internet many, many times... the modem seemed to spend more time locked up in the trunk of my car more than it was plugged in. my son is very intelligent... i mean EXTREMELY smart... for example... he only finished 9th grade but when I made him take the ged at age 17 he took the test without ANY studying and passed it the first time. His scores put him at the top 10% of the country!!!! He's just LAZY... I know I'm an enabler... I try so hard to not be that way anymore... he manipulates me so easy because he's so smart... I'm not as quick as him and he gets me everytime.. I've said to my husband and my ex-husband that I need help with this kid but they just don't get it.. or they don't listen to me... i don't know... I think his dad is secretly grateful that I'm stuck with this kid cuz he doesn't know what to do with him either... I wish he would find a girl and get married so he would then be her problem and not mine... oh my god, i'm a terrible person to say these things but it's how I really feel... i just don't know how to get him to understand that I need him to move out because he';s driving me crazy..
