[QUOTE="mamato3, post: 714398, member: 22015"] No substance abuse here, you are correct. Bothered most by the rants and disrespect. Not knowing if I will walk into my house and find that he has hurt or killed himself (which is what most of the ranting is about). Usually it starts with me not understanding and he can't do it any more and turns into all I want is his money and to kick him out of the house, if I would have been a better parent he would be a better child, etc. I am also bothered by his lack of productivity. In the past be has stolen from us and received a dui charge so he owes our family quite a bit of money. I have explained that the amount may be overwhelming and I don't expect it to be paid back immediately. I have also explained that if he would work very part time and go to school, much (he's already given us a very small amount) of his debt would be erased. Basically, if he will be productive in some form or fashion and contribute to the household via chores, I wasn't worried about him paying us back. You really made me think, A dad! [/QUOTE]
