[QUOTE="Lil, post: 631085, member: 17309"] I'm just so TIRED of this. It's always me too. Husband says it's because I'm the soft touch and I am sure that's part of it. But of course husband works in a prison too and I doubt my son even has a phone number for him. I just want to tear my hair out. I did say I'd talk to his dad about using the car if he had his own gas money, because I want to make sure husband and I are on the same page, but of course I'm sure my son [I]heard[/I] "Mommy will let you do it" even as I was telling him that had been MY intention - that the car was parked until he had a job - or at least an interview that was too far to walk or bike to, like the one today. Son, of course, responded with, "Well ask him about the $20 too." I told him I would NOT and that even if my husband TOLD ME to give him more money I would not!!! Then he asked for enough for cigarettes...I responded by telling him where his new pack of cigarettes were that we bought when we bought our own. Then I hung up. Jeeze!!! It's never enough! He wants everything! I knew when we asked for <demanded> the car keys it was going to get ugly tomorrow. I didn't expect it to start today! He just wants and wants and wants and it sucks the life right out of me! [/QUOTE]
