update
Well update. I had vented about my DD dropping out of High School , however, in driving away from High School after dropping out she decided to give the alternative school a try. She was successful and has now completed High School and has applied to first a community college to transfer to a Four Year college once the GPA and some prereqs are completed. My SS has successfully finished a year and half at a job however, he is having trouble with his sister and her boyfriend. Neither of whom are working very much and definitely not supporting themselves. They all live with the mothe

Just a Vent
So the stepkids are out. They are living with their mother so one less worry. This vent isn't really about them though I think there were some influences. So the vent. My youngest has decided to drop out of school two weeks into senior year. SS dropped out about the same time. However unlike SS my youngest is applying for jobs which brings up the vent. I happen to know a manager at a local store to which my youngest has applied. I made a mention that she had applied to the manager when I saw her. She said great and that she would look out for it. I came home and at dinner

Vent and Rant
So SS just finished living with us for about two and half months. During which time he did hardly anything to contribute to the household. He just turned 20. He didn't work except for three weeks of that period for a couple days of the week each time. He got paid in cash. He got money from somewhere as he was buying food and drinks for himself. He did once or twice take out my DD for food or drink. My DD is having trouble in school, not wanting to go etc. My SS dropped out of school, before that he stopped doing school work. He did eventually get his GED but not much else.

No Job still and more
Well SS is still living in the house with two other friends both of who are in college and have a job. In fact they're both managers at said jobs. SS however does not have a job nor is he attending college. However, dad feels that buying him a mountain bike because he mentioned he was planning on riding again. This has happened several times, SS mentions that he's going to go riding again , goes once and then months pass. He has had three jobs in the past three years all lasting two weeks or less. One once because of the pandemic so doesn't really count I guess. However, the oth

Vent
So early this morning my DS called that the light had burned out in his room , went down and replaced it with a light blub from another light and went back to bed. This morning we got ready for work and school and left telling my DH that the light bulb in the other light needed replacing and I didn't know where they were. Apparently the light cover fell from the one I replaced and broke on the floor. Needless to say when we got home today my DH told DS that he could'lve gotten a lamp or something instead of replacing the light bulb. It upset my son . Now I do think my son is being a b

Kicked out, new place and still be enabled, oh my
Well SS got caught with a cat in his place and landlord threatened to kick him out. BM advised him to get out before he got kicked out so he moved back in with us for about a month with said cat. It went really well for awhile until I made a comment about a new car being a better investment than a used car , the new car in question was the same make and model as DD new car. SS said that he wanted his sister to have a good car in a snide sort of way. I incrediously commented as opposed a new car .

To do or not to do
Well its been great. SS is still living in his apartment with a roommate and couch surfer. He applied for three jobs but didn't get any of them. SD is living with her mother , still doesn't have a driving license (that may change today as she has her driving test today) and playing SIMS all day, though I guess she got a job at mom's office as a receptionist earning 22 dollars a hour. That puts her earning more than her dad. We'll see how long this job lasts.

Still going good
Well SS has been in his apartment for about a month. He'll probably be getting a roommate soon. The other roommates parent's didn't think their newly 18 year old son was ready for such responsibility. My DH seemed shocked this was the case. Um hello. The only way SS is affording this apartment is he is not. Mom gives him and SD $600 a month in addition to paying for the apartment along with furnishing it. When the washer needed a new motor she bought a new one instead. DH has already ordered the part to repair it but oh well, It of course started to leak and SS called mom who cal

So Far, All is Going Well
Count me shocked. Its been a week since SS moved into his apartment. The lease was signed by BM and him. She has bought him a couch and some minor things here and there. DH brought over a card table we had in the shed for him to use as a table until one can be bought as well as some glasses and mugs along with SS coffee grinder and drip set he's had for two years and hardly used. Now he can have coffee. A washer and dryer set was purchased by BM, however, they were lacking feet which DH bought . They arrived today and he took them over so he could hook up the washer and dryer.

Apartment vent
So SS now 18 today, happy birthday to him is moving into his apartment this weekend more than likely. His mommy got him the apartment and will be paying the rent for the first couple of months. SS has no job and hasn't finished high school yet. He's at home playing video games and sleeping and probably binge watching Netflix with his sister and mom when mom isn't sleeping or working. He is in my opinion classic bipolar and it has been suggested. He has mild autism, anxiety and depression. In the three and half years he has lived with his dad and me he takes his medication for a bit, s
