SUBJECT: controlling 18 year old
It's going on 2:00am and yes I am awake and wondering if my fiancee has given his oldest son a key yet and if this boy is coming in this house in the middle of the night. I realize more as today has passed this is not a good situation nor is it a healthy one, at least for me.
His mother is moving, he chooses not to move, figuring he can live with dad. He forgets or doesn't care I am here too. He dropped out of school, can't hold a job, sleeps all day, runs with his crowd all night, using home base as a stop n go. He's gone back & forth between his parents sense their break up and divorce. if he doesn't like what is going on at one place, stomps out and goes back to the other. Cares less about anything. His father's work takes him away from home both nights & days, I don't want this boy, living here. I don't like the attitude, rudeness, foul mouthed, lack of respect for anyone or anything. He won't listen, has a way of just ignoring you if you even try talking to him.
In just his coming over I have had to much stolen from me, but can't prove it, because, I didn't see it, so he gets by with it, like everything else, so far.
I can understand how my fiancee feels, it is his son, but I have nor will I have any control over him, or what he does. We have a nice home, looking past what all his son has broken in the past. we finally paid off a phone bill over 600.00 due to him.
The only solution tonight I can even think of is that my fiancee will have to look and get another job where he will be home every night if he allows him to stay with us. For my peace of mind, my safety and my cat.
I have a feeling their will be a choice he will have to make, which I don't like to think of, I have a feeling it is going to come down to my going. Sad but true.
To think a loving relationship of almost 2 years counts for nothing, that my life is held by a controlling, lazy, mean, destructive kid. And sadder yet, his father doesn't wish to see it.
