One of my roommates was supposed to take care of the rent this coming month of June since my college money paid for all 3 of us to stay where we are for the entire spring. He only gave me 200 bucks and was fired from his job after calling in too much because he wanted to get drunk, which means he wont have the money. I've been friends with his guy for 4 years and his mother is a good friend of mine. His mother says she will still be my friend if I throw him out, which I am. Hes mad and making threats and insults with his friends he made during the past 3 months. 4 years seems to mean nothing to him or paying any kind of bill. My question what would you do and why is he acting like this? (hes 18 btw I'm 22 )

His mother has known what has been going on since he's been here he doesn't listen to any one not even her. and he lies quite a bit to try to cover up anything which she knows he does as well.

I would talk to his mother about it and tell her that her son promised he'd give me X amount of dollars, he only gave me 200 and I'm short by X amount (X being the difference between 200 and your rent.) I'd also point out that you graciously paid how ever many months that he has lived with you for scott free, and all he did was drink (underage perhaps?) and get fired from a job, and you don't want to lose your apartment because of someone else's stupid mistake.
Try cutting a deal with your landlord, or even borrow it from your parents. I hope you made him sign a contract, you could hold him legally responsible and sue him in small claims court, especially if he does any damage while he's moving out. Make sure someone is there to supervise him as he's moving to make sure he doesnt a) damage the place b) steal any of your belongings. Here in Oregon we can do what is known as a Civil Standby, wherein the County Sheriff will show up and supervise someone moving out for the owner and previous tenant's protection of private property.
He's acting like this because he's an 18 year old punk who doesn't have his priorities straight, he wants to have his good times without having to pay the consequences. He's irresponsible plain and simple. Sometimes having your friend move in with you is a good way to ruin a perfectly good friendship, you find out how the person truly is inside and out, not just what they let you see.

call up an criminal specialist and discover out what your rights are. in my opinion i imagine you've each and every acceptable to pass out and destroy your employ because she is arising an risky ecosystem for you. start up packing and transferring stuff out now. Like some different person suggested... aren't any more making it too evident. keep all of your different issues such as bathing room aspects on your mattress room and positioned a clean more effective shield lock on the door. Take your computing device back and deliver that on your father for safekeeping. If she will be in a position to no longer allow you to contact the computing device, have your father come to the position of residing with the receipt, and make contact with the police. they'll make her supply it back to you. administration is in hassle-free words there for the money. Heck, my one position extremely a lot had of their settlement that if my roommate, whom THEY placed with me, tried to do actual harm to me, they weren't responsible.

He's acting like this because he knows you're right. It's total distress on his part. Besides that, he wants to be able to blame you and not himself for the mess he's in.
Don't let him get to you. Stick to your guns and get him out of there. You don't need the stress and he needs to grow up and learn to take care of himself.
It's unfortunate that you may loose a friend, but I'm sure as soon as he is willing to admit that you're right he'll be your friend again.

He has not sufficiently matured to appreciate your friendship, or his responsibilities.
