[QUOTE="Jabberwockey, post: 668029, member: 18238"] Lil has addressed some specifics so I wont rehash that but wanted to add a few things. First off, this is the sibling that's closest to understanding our problem from the start. She's had problems with all three of her children. Her oldest son had the same attitude our son does. The only reason he didn't continue his fall was because he blew himself up and is now on disability. He doesn't work and likes it that way. Her second son was a meth head and he cleaned himself up when his girlfriend gave him the ultimatum of either drugs or her, not both. They married several years ago and have three children. Her daughter was just excessively stubborn but it lasted for quite a while. Point is, she wont blame us. Problem is, her husband is even stricter than I am. Lazing around the house, demanding special meals and snacks, bs excuses as to why he cant get/keep a job will not be tolerated. The only other siblings really in a position to take him in is my brother, the one who threatened to kick his butt for the incident at the Grandparents! Not likely to get much sympathy there. Honestly, I think my sister is trying to atone for what she perceives as her failure with her oldest. I hope she learns quickly but its all on her. [/QUOTE]
