[QUOTE="Robinboots, post: 329486, member: 4542"] Cookie, please! With rum, preferably.... Mayhap I spoke too soon. I mean, really, does it get any better than THIS?? This afternoon, after telling GFG17 - there, I used the proper acronym, took me long enough, huh? - "no" he couldn't go hang with his former foster parents and "no" they would not continue to pay for his phone, I was accused of: Being delusional, heartless, a horrible mother, playing favorites, being mean, being lazy, not considering education important, not caring, needing medications, needing a psychiatric evaluation, lying to everyone, and trying to turn people against each other. Dang, I must be busy, busy, busy! I responded a bit, at first, completely calm and cool. When I started to lose it, I told him to go to his room. Of course, he refused, several times. Then I moved on to ignoring him and continuing to work. Naturally, he then insulted my work - I'm a writer - and referred to it as "cr*p full of lies" or something like that. Thankfully, my DD23 called and when I answered and began talking to her, he either ran out of steam or got bored. The end. Now, what to do?? He continues to lie about school - said he never got his grades, when I know darn good and well he flunked all 4 classes. Said the financial aid letter from a couple days ago was just to tell him his Pell Grant would be in in a few days - and I know it said he wasn't getting squat because of his grades. Lied today about his bank accounts too - said they were all in good standing, and that he only had them at two banks. Right - one at Bank 1 has $1.57, that much is true; the others at Bank 2 are overdrawn by $500 or so; and his school debit card is overdrawn by about $200. I didn't even mention that one. AND he neglected to tell me about an online account - I have no idea of the details, just that he told PayPal he had one at that bank. Probably doesn't really. Who knows? husband wants to take the car - I seriously doubt if he has the payment anyway, which is due Friday. I just don't want more trouble, that is, trouble with him here. Thankfully, if he does take off, at 17 we don't have to report him as missing or a runaway. Yeehaw, thank God for small favors! I actually gave him that option earlier, vs. going to his room.
