[QUOTE="Star*, post: 108746, member: 4964"] hey paris - I wouldn't be mad with your Mom either. It's not her responsibility to get an 18 year old young man up out of bed. However; if everyone is at work what else did you or he think he was going to do? Does he have a car there? Are options for activities within walking distance? Does your Mom leave him a list of TO DO's? If it was decided before hand that he go to the gym or something, and your son isn't doing that - still not anyones responsibility but his. Now would NOT be the best time to tell your Mom what he needs, that should have been addressed before hand. It sounds like you did that; and maybe everyone is ignoring the "schedule" or maybe since difficult child is away from you? He's decided to march to his own little drummer boy. If that's the case - bring him home. If you sent him away to get a much needed break in your life? Then I would call my Mom tell her to either buy him an alarm clock and stick to your pre-discussed plans or send him a bus ticket and unplug my phone. Sorry for the frustration - Star [/QUOTE]
