This time I am ticked with my oldest. Actually he tends to irritate me quite a bit because he can be so exasperating.
He always blames other people for everything that happens to him. He also tends to bend the truth shall we say to fit his own warped reality.
Today just took the cake. Before Billy left to go live with Jamie in April of 2006, he had a checking account at the credit union where I bank. Somehow he had something being auto drafted out of his account through paypal for $4.99 a month. Billy claims he never started this draft but I find it very hard to believe someone would steal his identity for that measly amount. He supposedly went into the bank to have the draft stopped but "they didnt do what they were supposed to" according to him.
Well when he left to go live with Jamie instead of closing his account which would have stopped the drafts, he left like 5 bucks in the account and the drafts kept coming each month and incurring overdrafts each time they tried to go through. DUH!!! Eventually the bank did close the account but they also flagged his name so he can never get another account with the credit union. They also took the overdraft money out of MY savings account last summer. I was ticked but nothing I could do about it.
Now...according to my genius son, it is MY fault all this happened because I didnt tell him he should have closed his account before he left to go to Jamie's. And it is someone else's fault that the drafts even started in the first place. He claims that Jamies first girlfriend from 2003 was the one to do this but I cannot believe he left it go on that long. Not 3 years. I think this 4.99 a month had something to do with some internet thing he was doing. What else could it be? No one else can get into his paypal account, he passwords it well.
I get so tired of him blaming everyone else for things he does. If its not Corys fault, its mine. It is never his fault. When caught in a lie he tells, he gets mad and says we told him what he said. Uhhhh not! He actually told my father that Cory had wrecked my car by hitting a ditch and flipping the car 3 times! Now he had to know that was a complete lie because the car only has a small dent and a broken headlight! Cory hit a ditch and did damage to the undercarriage but if he had flipped a cavalier the car would be a pancake! Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
