Will it get better

My financee (60% disabled) has two dependant adult children that do everything they can to get money out of their father and much of his response seems to be unjustifiablity guilt related.

His daughter(22)is graduating from college and had her father co-sign student loans which he will probably end up paying because she thinks a job is something other people have. The 20yo son (on probation) lives with us and he does nothing to help out other then keep his stuff (mostly) in his room, and rinse off any dishes he uses. He works full time and in the last 4 months only paid 3 weeks of rent/loan monies. The son also asks for $20.00 here and there because he runs out of money. He pays no car insurance and wants his father to buy him new tires etc. The kid is has been ticketed for speeding, being a menance etc and when he does come home parks his car directly behind ours so both of us are blocked in and have to move his car to go to work. He recently informed his father that the next time we go away he is going to have a beer bong party at the house....

I am paying half the household bills and get frustrated because I make more contributions (money, cleaning home improvement etc)and the kid won't even take out the garbage. And my fiancee is struggling to stay on top of things ....

I do have a 24 yo daughter who is an unwed Mom struggling to make herself a better life but barely asks for anything other then a SOS message now and then.

What are the chances that my life will improve and his adult kids will become independant enough for us to enjoy ourselves?
