[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 748532, member: 4040"] I have debated on whether to respond, since I didn't have these kinds of issues with Miss KT. However, her father, at the age of 60, is completely dependent on his mother, who is 92. He lives about an hour south of here, in a home she owns, and hasn't worked steadily since we divorced about 25 years ago. I refer to him as Useless Boy. He is capable of working, he just smokes too much pot and uses who knows whatever else, and he's lazy as hell. So lazy that when Miss KT came down to visit a few weeks ago (mind you, she is living 800 miles away), he couldn't stir his butt up enough to drive an hour to see his only child. I think the mom in the original post is an enabler, and even if the guy is doing better now, who's to say that the mom won't continue to enable? UB's mother blamed me for his decline, that if I hadn't divorced him he would be fine. I had to shame him into working at all, and it was worse after Miss KT was born. [/QUOTE]
