My mind is gonna implode....
I saw something that someone posted on here about kids over 18 "pay rent, go to college or move out" I love this, especially since BM, after SS18 and SS19 where with her all summer, has decided to tell them to leave.
Ok, now to talk to DH. I do not want these two slobs in my home. So, that being said, how would a conversation look from me to DH saying that above quote? I really need to have words put in my mouth. It makes me ill just thinking about talking to him about this. I know he will just let them come and stay and we will be right back to square one like a year a half ago. When they left BM's house because they didn't want to do chores.... Yes, that is true.

I have never understood this
I have never understood this mindset, either.
Guess I need to call up my old landlord and see which bank she used to for my savings account.
Goawyplz, thank you so very
Goawyplz, thank you so very much. I don't think I will return the $, because they eat a lot, we drive the younger one around all over town, we had to increase our internet connection and they incur expense with electric and other things.
This is good. I appreciate it.
I had issues with older son
I had issues with older son who is now 21. He worked but didn't want to further his education. He was giving us an attitude. He is a good man but a bit of a mooch. I had 3 grown to almost grown children in my home. Son wanted to do nothing but hang out with his friends. In my home they have till the age of 24 to get their education and they are out. I told Son who kept making excuses for not going to school that starting Sept 1 rent starts at $400.00 a month. That is a deal in my eyes. That was his portion of the bills. I will not support a grown working adult who does not want to go anywhere. Well he did the math and moved out and found a good room mate. He seems like he is struggling but happy. I didn't expect college but SOMETHING that would further him in a career. He didn't want it so now he has to deal with the real world. Sometimes you have to be hard for their own good. I don't need my kids money but yeah I would not think twice on applying it to the bills.
The way I saw it is I was working my butt off paying the bills and he was having fun hanging out with his friends with no responsibilities. I was not doing him a favor allowing the situation to go on. He is pretty independent now and I am proud of him but I did have to put my foot down. My Son 18 was smarter. He is taking classes in Tech School.
Exactly I only help when they
Exactly I only help when they help themselves. No school means paying rent somewhere. Nothing in life is free. I think Son is proud of standing on his own.
Their own mother does not
Their own mother does not want to put up with these lazy slobs, why should you?
My husband knows SD23 cannot live with us. No way does he want me any crazier than I already am.
