[QUOTE="Lil, post: 631458, member: 17309"] Update! Since last Saturday, when I sat him down and told him I was going to try not to run his life anymore and to treat him like an adult, things have actually been much better; much less stressful. My husband commented on it last night. It's that noticeable. I don't know that my son has actually done anything differently. I think it's more that I [I]feel[/I] differently. It's not wondering if he's taking a shower or brushing his teeth or looking for work...it's just - different. I suppose some has to be my son, because if it were just me, my husband wouldn't have said how much better it's been. He hasn't done a lot of looking for a job. He hasn't used the car or gotten a penny. He put in those applications Sunday and heard from the one Monday. I took him shopping and got decent clothes to interview in Tuesday, just slacks and a dress shirt and he's going to wear a tie of his dads (pre-tied, he'll have to learn that someday lol.) His interview is at 11. Fingers crossed ladies! [/QUOTE]
