I have a 19 yr old son that just moved into his own apt. He makes enough to cover his rent and expenses, if he would just stop spending the money elsewhere....
His aunt and I set him up in the apt.(with his knowledge) because he just doesn't want to listen to rules at my home or hers.. (He has lived both places) All he wants to do is party..
I offered to hang on to the money that he needed each week for his rent, so that he would get used to doing without it... But all he kept doing was saying " I need $10 for this or I need $20 for that".. I finally had enough and gave him back ALL of his money and told him to handle it himself,,,only after he called me all kinds of names and said that it was his money..
I have problems of my own and I feel that I have done everything I can for him, but how do I not let it get to me...
He works a full time job. Its not like I threw him out on the streets or anything. I am determined to make him do it on his own, but how do I not feel guilty??
