[QUOTE="Pinkfreud, post: 683462, member: 18206"] yes. worked at 16 as a bagger during the summer, then quit when school started back up because he was heavily into marching band. No difficulties. he was "normal" for the most part. The biggest issues I had were things like he would try to tell me how to parent his sister ( 3 yrs younger than him). He was very concerned about fair etc. His father and I divorced when my son was 11...he lived with me for a year, and then he moved in with his dad. From what my son has told me, that probably wasn't the best thing, because my son was exposed to some adult things that he probably shouldn't have been ( conversations mainly). He has no relationship with his father since 2013, when he found out his dad took him off his health insurance ( even though it wasn't additional to have him on it, because he had other children on the policy) He went to community college for 3 semesters, some basics and computer courses, but quit going because he felt he wasn't learning anything in the computer classes ( he has been programming since he was 12, self taught). Here is kind of a breakdown of adult life for him: He worked at KFC while attending college...had the breakdown, lasted another 3 months ( 1 yr total), then quit over a fight with the manager ( I cant remember what about) worked processing cable orders for about 9 months, quit because the manager told him he couldn't slouch in his chair. He worked at a temp service off and on after that, then they quit calling him for jobs because he refused to work at this one place that pressed DVD's for what he claims was a pyramid scheme that was scamming people. He then got the GOOD job that lasted 2 years. He was doing really well...then he quit over the position change after cussing the manager out ( I think he regretted that..he mentioned HR called him a week later, and he was like " I would be too embarrassed to go back") then his first homeless stint that lasted 6 weeks.... then the job for about 8 months before being fired for calling his coworker a pretty bad name.
