Today is the day I will lose my sh*t completely
I KNOW ss has issues. I realize he was bounced around from bf to bf and school to school with bm. But he has been here for almost 2 years in a stable, normal environment and it is about gd time that he starts to DO something. I do love the kid, and feel bad for him, but the flip side of that is he is the laziest most gluttonous person (adult ofr child) that I have ever come across in my life and I am not going to put up with it any longer.
We will start with the food issues. In 1 1/2 days he drank a whole gallon of milk, used the entire 16 oz container of Hershey's syrup that I HID because it was for my 5 year old as treat, ate an entire pound of turkey and half a loaf of bread. Half a jar of peanut butter that he left open in his room as he was eating it with a spoon, etc. The list goes on. Don't complain about your weight when you are eating everything in your path. He then bitched about how much he hates gym because they *gasp* made him run laps. Maybe if you actually moved on occasion it wouldn't be so trying.
Today I go to clean the living room. I vacuum under the couch cushions, which apparently he has never seen in his life. Otherwise he would not be stuffing wrappers and used napkins between the cushions because he is too f*ing lazy to walk the 5 feet to a garbage can.
Next up, I take a peak in his room. He was told it must be cleaned. Righ in the middle of his bed is a ROTTING banana peel. Mind you he slept in the bed, so he obviously was lying on it. I tell him to get off his butt and go clean his room. Mention said banana peel and get "It's only been there since yesterday". Really? You think it matters how long the rotting food has been there? You don't think it should be thrown out immediately??? This is asside from all the garbage I can see under his bed. ALso, he has cleaned up his clothes by throwing them all in the hamper. 3/4 of them still folded form the last time they were washed.
So here we are. He will come from school and actually clean the pig sty he calls a room. In addition, today he will learn how to do his own laundry because I'm not doing it anymore. My 5 year old knows how to clean and fold laundry. I am sick and tired of living with the equivalent of a sloth. He will be doing work around the house and he will be doing school work every night from now on. I'm so tired of of looking at him lounging around while dh and I do everything. ANd thankfully, so is dh.

I hear about some of the kids
I hear about some of the kids on here and they are just gross, my daughter is 15mths old and after she is done with her blocks she puts them back in the box. So why is it that these older kids can't clean up after themselves? I feel so bad for you I would flip if there was roting food in SS's room, I just laid down the law that no food or drink anywhere but the table and every night before bed he has to straiten his room or he doesn't get a star or loses a privlage. So far that seems to be helping. These kids need to have standerds for themselves and its really sad that they just don't care.
His mother is a pig. I never
His mother is a pig. I never walked to her front door and didn't see crushed food all over the floor, etc. He had no one to teach him how to live in the past. But he has been here long enough to know it isn't acceptable in our house. ANd he is going to be 15 in a few weeks. He is old enough to know better. He is also pretty damn close to being on his own. If he thinks anyone in their right mind is going think of him as a catch with these habits, he is in for a rude awakening once he hits the real world.

This is common with my
This is common with my sbrats. SD10 will leave bowls of almost eaten cereal with milk in her room for days and days. I refuse to clean her room anymore after finding ant infestations twice. Of course BF's excuse was 'thats what they are used to'. SS is the one that thinks the whole house is his garbage can. BF made the comment that the kids asked if I would buy freeze pops and I said OK, but your ass is the one picking up the plastic wrappers all over the house.
BF has finally realized that I will stop nagging and bitching when he starts making them act like humans.
My skids BM is a sloth.
My skids BM is a sloth. Apparently, her place was digusting (before she was evicted). If it grosses a 15 year old boy out it must be horrible...he refused to shower in "that black tub." We had/have some of the same issues with rotting food in the skids rooms. SO set a rule that none of the kids are allowed to eat anything outside the kitchen unless they are sitting at the diningroom table. This includes drinks of any kind. He's kept to the rule and magically the bugs & knats have disappeared and the dog is no longer excavating chocoloate treats from the depths of skids' rooms. I'm sure the dog especially hates the rule!
LOL! My dogs are in heaven
LOL! My dogs are in heaven when he leaves the door open by mistake. I explained to him exactly what needed to be done, step by step, when he got home from school. He went to his room immediately and said OK. Guess what he was doing when I checked? Sleeping!!
pretty much what my ss did
pretty much what my ss did when being told to do something he had been asked numerous times to do, then he'd be up all night eating ingredients for meals, stuff he'd normally not even eat and making tons of noise playing computer games with the speakers full blast. I'd wake your skid up right now and have him follow through with what he was told to do, he's just using sleep as an escape
