[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 644494, member: 1233"] If the McD's is run anything like the ones here and where we used to live, they might actually give him the job back for a while. It depends on how hard up they are for employees. It isn't a good idea to go talk to his boss. Not about his performance or about his absence. You need to not make excuses for him to his boss for the simple reason that this is HIS job and HIS responsibility. If you want him to be responsible and to learn to cope in the Real World, then you must allow him to experience it all on his own. How would your husband look if you went to his boss and told him that husband was really sick or was really at the doctor's office after he took some time off? Yes, your husband is self employed, but if he was working for someone, how do you think his boss would view him if you did what I described? Your difficult child is nt going to learn about the real world, and life where the rules are set by society or a company unless you step out of his way and let him experience it. Especially at his job. [/QUOTE]
