[QUOTE="SeaGenieTx, post: 673392, member: 18773"] I'm determined to stop helping my 23 year son but its a process. I kicked him out and we are not talking at all - but yet I got my mail last night and he had toll road violation notices totaling over $150 and I (without thinking) texted him saying "Pay your toll road tag fees or stop using the toll road! You owe $150 in violations and you are asking to get ticketed - and driving with a suspended license you are asking to get pulled over and arrested". Then right after I sent that text I got mad at myself - I have to break the response to give advice or help. That was my fault - I won't do that again. He has to suffer the consequences of his choices and if he can't pay his toll tag then he has to face the fines and possible arrest. Makes me sick how much money he has wasted on tickets, fines, attorneys fees, etc. Has has wasted $20K of his inheritance on that and still has no clue how to manage money. An inheritance he could be using for college or investing has gone up in smoke as he says "Its MY money I can do with it what I want". He had spent $300 on a glass bong he brought into my home that I found and destroyed. Warned him twice not to bring drugs or drug paraphenalia in to my home that if I found it I'd destroy it. He got mad at me for destroying that expensive glass bong...I wasted his money, etc. I mean - really? Kid has no damn brain or common sense. He is more immature at age 23 than he was at 7. Blows me away the stupidity and cluelessness my kid has shown since he started smoking pot and acting like a fool. [/QUOTE]
