UMMMMMMMM- Fixing the 28 year old son's car in the dark saved her and him money????? Why isn't the son paying for his own car to be fixed and why it is coming out of their pocket to fix it?


QUOTE> Obviously your husband doesn't mind helping his son and you have been in this situation for about twenty years so this is behavior you should be expecting.

So when the child was 8 she should have looked into her crystal ball and foreseen the future of a 28 grown man's behavior? This is a very unfair statement to make to her. Shame on you.

There has got to be a limit to how much a grown man can expect and take from his parent and it is really unfair for any of us to judge since it is NOT us living in their home. I understand he loves his son, but I am sorry to say that sometimes love/kindness can be mistaken for weakness.
