[QUOTE="DDD, post: 617062, member: 35"] I want to welcome you. I want you to know that I've had a couple of "slob" children. I want you to know that I wish you well. LOL! I am truly sorry, but, I don't have one single answer for you. Why? Well, mostly, any solution is going to require time and by jove you do not have spare time! I've been a single Mom with multiple kids to support and even tho I was in my 30's then I accepted that I could only do so much and keep working (yes, multiple jobs). Until you completely have totally decided that you can't take it...take it. IF and when you "really" can't take it...set a deadline and show them the door. The AS daughter may never "get it". The others will eventually want to be on their own and meanwhile they are working or going to school. [U]You've done a good job[/U]. It is an endurance race. They are growing up and they can choose to be slobs for life...meanwhile, be proud that they are not in jail, they are not stealing from you, they are not doing drugs etc. etc. Hang in there. Sending hugs your way. DDD [/QUOTE]
