[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 703085, member: 18958"] Hi A Dad: When you tell me, I listen. When I tell him, he does not. You see, he wants to keep the free money coming in from the government, as long as he can. There is a disincentive to work, or to work on the books, where the earnings will be reported. As by working, he fears he will demonstrate that he can work, thus the money will be cut off. He could work and earn some money, but there is a lot of paranoia and gossip going around that creates fear--to do any paid work at all. I fear that it is a circular process--as long as he gets the money he will remain arrogant and it will did-incentivize working. And he will not work, and remain arrogant, and stuck. I have kicked him out of the house again. What else is new? He is out in the cold without a coat, a sleeping bag, and I fear, with no money. I do not know where he is, and he has no phone. What he does with his money, I do not know. It is mid-month. He should have money. I did not ask for rent. He said his debit card was destroyed. We thought it was a ploy to stay here. What if it wasn't? He has always landed on his feet. But you can understand my fear, and my anguish. I miss him so much. There is no place to stand in this place where we live. As always, thank you for your response, A Dad. [/QUOTE]
