Thanks to all of you for your replies and prayers.
difficult child is much better after being on his Wellbutrin for almost two straight weeks. He is due to return to college next week.
I still cannot seem to get him out of bed before 1pm. According to him, he is 'on break'. I thought that was what he did all fall term, based on results. Next week should be interesting.
His cell phone is broken. Won't text, Facebook or call anyone who he doesn't know the number for. Not my problem.
Some kid broke his new laptop. Needs $200 repair. Not my problem.
His smoking habit costs about $75 a month. Not my problem.
His license is suspended through mid-Feb so he will return to school without a vehicle. Not my problem.
It will cost him $275 to get his license back. Not my problem.
He has upcoming court costs and fines. They will require him to go on probation until the amount is paid. He will have to get a part time job. Not my problem.
If he doesn't do well in school this term, I refuse to send him back. He cannot live here unless he is employed full-time. Again, not my problem.
That may seem harsh but he is 18. Time to clean up your own messes and not rely on Mommy.
I need a break. My health has suffered greatly in the last month. Just going to need to watch my boundaries carefully as the consequences come due for him.
