[QUOTE="WannabeAgoodFather, post: 722578, member: 21165"] I do not push my stepson or my own children. I am not that type, "You design your own life" is my thing. I told him 2 years ago when he came back home after dropping out, "If you do not want to go to school, then it is fine. College is not for everyone. If you chose to do that, then get a decent job, work hard and start your adult responsible life" He did not do it, wasted his time on getting high and delivering pizzas for few hours, I stopped pushing or talking. His mother was, is and has been the biggest enabler. He used her left and right which made me very angry. I stopped communicating with him. My own kids are not perfect either. However, the difference is mine know what are important for the time being and what aren't. They pushed hard through high school and ended up in the most prestige schools in the World. Since they have seen the drama happening in the house, they just do not want to deal with it or be affected by the drama. [/QUOTE]
