[QUOTE="mstang67chic, post: 208317, member: 2459"] Are you wrong? Nope, not at all. It seems he only comes around when he needs something. He's only nice when he wants something from you and he think he should get things just because he's your son. Well sorry but it doesn't work like that. It sounds like you have been more than helpful for him and if he can't see his way to being appreciative and respectful, then he can do for himself. He's 18 and (sounds like) not living at home. He can figure things out for himself. If, at some point, he decides that he can be civil, respectful and hold up his end of responsibilities....feel free to help him out in whatever you deem appropriate. Until then.....sounds like you're on the right track. Just because he's your son doesn't mean he's entitled to every single thing he wants from you. He's a big boy and in the real world. Here in the real world, if we want something, we have to work for it. He needs to learn that. Hugs. [/QUOTE]
