[QUOTE="insanemomoffour, post: 297831, member: 3652"] well folks, thanks for the advice. Unfortunately, I didn't have a chance to place any of it in motion. Before he left tonight we had words. Something as simple as lying about where he put his towel after getting out of the pool. Then he was cussing/fussing about he couldn't find his hair gel and that he swears he can't have anything in the bathroom without someone taking his stuff. I then said that he didn't even want to go there. He asked what? I said as much as he goes in other people's stuff and just takes it for example taking his father's clothes (down to underwear) in front of his friend but not about the underwear. He then flipped out that I called him out in front of his friend. Then he left cussing and fussing again. A couple hours pass and he texts me to see if this other friend of his can spend the night. I first said no. That went back and forth for a while. Finally, I said if he wants to come home and clean his room (since it too smells like urine) that they can sleep in there. Then it just got uglier. I finally told him that if things were so bad here he could come get his things and leave. He did show up aprox 30 mins later with his friend. He took the xbox360, some clothes and a blanket. The xbox is the families and that became a struggle. I just finally said take it, if that is all it will take for him to leave. Go. Now, comes the part where we gave him a car for graduation. However, it came with a 90 day grace period, pending he follow certain rules. Of course some of those even have been broken. He took off with the car, I told him that I would report it stolen. He said I wouldn't. I want to give him a chance to get his **** together. His father wants to go upside his head. After I slammed the door (once I got tired of hearing I don't do nothing for him and I am worthless and I have been no type of mother to him since he was born....), he started bashing the door. Breaking the door frame... ugh!!! He left. medications? Stopped taking them a once school got out. He is suppose to attend orientation tomorrow for the community college. We will see if he goes. I was suppose to go with but of course I am worthless so I will not be attending. Just in case you are wondering. husband is at work. He works 7 days on, 7 days off. So after talking him down, I said I think we should stand by my word and say good bye and good luck. If the car and game system is soooooo important to him, he can have them. Not worth the added ****. Neither worth much. Besides, he made need somewhere to sleep. ok, it seems as if I am together. But my heart is breaking! [/QUOTE]
