My difficult child son, his wife and baby have been out on their own for 6 months. He screwed up here in regards to working, and lost the place they were living in. So he moves back to our hometown to start anew, which is about the 4th time in the last yr. He tells me he got a job about a month after. I covered the next 6 months car insurance for us all. Mind you that over 1/2 of the cost is due to his poor drivng record, no accidents just a lead foot. He as been mowing our grass for gas money. Whil;e we were gone he comes over to mow, too soon, but takes the money anyway, and then lies a second time that he was not in our house. Gosh I wonder how his baseball glove got in the house? "I dont have any of your new house keys to the house". Fortunately nothing else was missing. I think he learned his lesson from this past winter, when we had the polioce involved.. Now he tells me about a new job he took through the temp service in a field a he knows, welding and of course it does pay better then general labor. He tells me one day is drug testing which is not a problem, and the the next day he starts. That he found a daycare for the baby, and even though they only need one for partime, everywhere he called only takes fulltime infants. Supposedly he goes to work, then injures his hand, but stays at work. They sent him to the hospital after and they told him his knucle is fractured. Cant do anything for that, and his hand looks normal, mind you I am a nurse. He tells me he was told by the plant to stay home the next day. I talked to him basically about being a whimp, yada, yada... I call his house the next day knowing his wife is off, adn guess what? He answeres the phone half asleep. When I ask him why are you at home? He hangs up on me.
This really ticks me off because I paid his part of car insurance, and he tells me he will pay me back an amt every month. I had plans to save that money for his next 6 months due when it comes up. Then he gets a call from the Children services about late payment. He doesnt have the money of 200.00 to pay for it, adn they are going to place him in jail. I pay it so he can work, my bad! He then tells me that he is going to give up his parental rights to his otrher children so he doesnt have to pay child supoport. Is that how it works? Needless to say we had a talk about that. He already really doesnt have any parental rights, because he cannot see them until he does the education required of him. It has been 2 yrs ago. Dont see him doing it any time soon. He tells me , I have a new family now.
