My wife finally let my SS and I know how she feels in very clear, angry and loud terms.
I lost it with SS-18 when I went in to the kitchen yesterday to get a drink. I spilled some liquid on the floor and when I stooped to clean it up I saw how nasty the floor was. This is the floor that the kid is supposed to clean when he cleans the kitchen daily. So, I called him in to the kitchen to have him clean the floor and he got snarky with me ..... so I kicked him out and told him not to bother coming back.
He said "fine, I am out of here" and grabbed his car keys. I took the keys and said "when you go you take only the clothes on your back since you own nothing, have earned nothing and have never provided anything for yourself". He said he was going to put on some jeans. I told him he owned no jeans and to go with what he was wearing.
My wife blew her top on both of us telling us that she was sick if being in the middle.
She told me I needed to cool down and quit riding his ass 24/7 and told SS-18 that he needed to pull his head out of his ass and quit being a lazy piece of shit. She said that she would leave if we both did not pull our heads out.
I had to bite my tongue on that threat because I so very badly wanted to tell her to take her worthless POS spawn with her.
Not my real feelings of course. I love my wife incredibly and I even love our son (SS-18). I just have ZERO tolerance for his crap. I have been tolerating and trying to correct it for a decade. He is 18 with the emotional maturity of a 8-12yo and I am sick of it and of him, at least in his current configuration.
I have no idea how I survived to adulthood without my parents doing me in permanently. It is probably a good thing I have not spawned. At least with a Skid once they are out we can more successfully move on.
She really laid in to both of us. I, uncharacteristically, stayed quiet and let her get it out.
We ended up having a rather good rest of the day. A couple hours after the blow up and subsequent discussions she thanked me for not getting mad at her. She thought I would be angry for her yelling at me in front of the kid.
Once I decided not to aggressively respond to getting blasted I was not mad, I was actually happy that she FINALLY confronted the Skid situation head on. I told her that I was tired of being the only one who "sees" and "addresses" the Skid crap and now that she has acknowledged the situation that I should not have to kick his worthless ass out.
The Skid was cleaning at warp speed last night because his mom was on him like stink on shit.
Of course he will do what he always does and go back to his usually worthless self in a few days. When he does I am going to tell my wife that she can kick him out.
That ought to go over well. :O
50 days until Basic Training starts and it can not come too soon.

Gee, thanks! But, I
Gee, thanks!
But, I deserved it. Catching sucks though, I have to say.
Boot camp should straighten
Boot camp should straighten him out Rags! Good luck to ya!
He should do very well in
He should do very well in basic training. When he has someone on him constantly he does very well. My concern is when he goes for his AFCS (AIT) training after basic. According to his recruiter he will be expected to be primarily self motivated in performing adequately and studying effectively. He sucks the mighty wong in these types of situations.
He refuses to study, tries to rely on his very high level of intelligence and he absolutely is stubborn about thinking that he can function during the day at a high level after spending night after night up all night playing WoW with his SpermIdiot.
I have little doubt that his SpermIdiot will help ruin this opportunity for him and a high level of confidence (sadly) that SS will fall in to his usual behaviors and faill miserably when he has to do more than be polite, pleasant and smart.
But, I pray that this time he proves me wrong. I pray for this every time he has an opportunity but so far he has lived up to or more accurately down to his past performance.
He sounds just like my
He sounds just like my brother and you sound just like my Step Dad talking to him LOL. My brother joined the Marine Corps and he was just how your SS is now. It did help my brother to become more independent and he did well. But now that he is out of the Marines he hasn't been able to hold a job and it seems he is going back to his old ways again! I hope your SS stays focused and goes forward in his life. I come from a long list of military men, my grandfather, my uncle, my cousin, my brother, my ex husband, and my current boyfriend. They all learned something in the process. I hope for your sake he does well. My Step Dad is resentful to my brother because of the way he has been acting, I see it put a damper on their already strained relationship.
