[QUOTE="Robinboots, post: 332932, member: 4542"] I am soooo stressed right now. The tension is unbelieveable. This kid can call me up and appear sooooooo normal when he wants something...or even in person, sometimes. Then he pulls his usual b.s. One-year countdown has begun. 11 months to go till he becomes an "adult". What to do? He applied for the state university, but just failed four classes at community college. Just found out he got fired from his job, as late as Saturday, probably before. Said he had a few days off. Spends money like there's no tomorrow. Lies all the time, about everything. Gets in involved in teen drama that's none of his concern AND, as a bonus, has people threatening to kick his butt all.the.flippin.time. On probation since last March. Seriously - what happens? Does he leave? Do we make him? What does he do? How/where does he live? What is the solution? He won't take any direction from us, or anyone, anywhere, ever. He pays lip service to advice, and goes his merry way. ??????????? I feel like I'm going to explode, or melt, or run screaming from the house! [/QUOTE]
