[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 104703, member: 3907"] Stands, it sounds a bit like you're trying to make your easy child live the life you want for him rather than the life he wants for himself. If he's happy to sit home alone watching a movie or reading a good book, then more power too him. Being able to entertain yourself and be happy with your own company is a life skill. The fact that he can do so is positive. As for the other boy owing your son a lift, I think Meowbunny makes a good point. If you were giving him lifts because you wanted to, that's fine, but if you were tallying up each lift in your head, expecting the favour to be returned, then that will get you nothing but resentment. Your easy child will be fine. It seems that you are still struggling to do things for yourself, and you're becoming overinvolved with your easy child to fill the void. Is there something you've always wanted to do? A neglected hobby? Others have said it before, and I will repeat it. It's time to take care of YOU. All the best, and hope my words don't offend.
