[QUOTE="pigless in VA, post: 725203, member: 11832"] He has a small amount of money that his father left him. He has yet to call the financial advisor to get ahold of it. It is only enough to get him a start. He will probably blow it all instead of using it wisely. Remember his grandparents who passed? He and his sister inherit their entire estate (not substantial). My husband's uncle is in charge of it. Uncle can dole out money for welfare and education as needed. I gave Uncle the head's up that Ferb has quit on college. Otherwise, he cannot access that money until he is 25. (Yea!) He could potentially talk Uncle into releasing a small amount, but he would have to be very convincing. The animosity has been present since his sister was born. I am trying very hard to accept the loss of my son. I was able to grasp the loss of his father to mental illness. I suppose I will find a way to lose him to stupidity? stubbornness? Whatever it is that causes him to categorically reject every effort that I make to help him. This is the same kid that rejected a used car that I bought him. He rejected a dirt bike that I bought him for Christmas one year. I am tempted to give him nothing this year. He had a chance at higher education, a chance that he demanded of me, and he refused to do the work. [/QUOTE]
