[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 78838, member: 3626"] Oddly, he may like having a mom who is firmer and in more control. If your son is like my daughter, he is a very young 22 and probably more like 15 or 16 emotionally. If so, deep inside he may truly appreciate being stopped from being himself even though he will die before he admits it. That doesn't mean there won't be battles, there will be if for no other reason than to save face. Since he seems to be so agreeable today, maybe it is time to have a talk and let him know there's a new constable in town -- one that won't tolerate the violence, abuse, bad behavior. For example, this constable will expect all damages to the home to be repaired thoroughly and completely within 30 days whether by him or a professional (if he does it and it is not up to standards, then he will have another 30 days to come up with the funds to have a professional repair the holes). Any further damage will be cause for an immediate eviction. Rudenss by him will be met with a jar held out and a fine being paid. Every curse word will be double the fine amount. Make the rules specific and ones you feel comfortable enforcing. [/QUOTE]
