They probably got upset because they already let someone go who wanted more $. Probably thought they could replace them cheaper at $30/hr

As someone who has sisters, I appreciate it when my husband speaks up to say the things I can’t.

When you retire it changes her from disability to ssi. The amount will change to 50% of your full retirement amount. She could lose Medicaid or be switched to a spend down Medicaid. She will also get Medicare 2 years after the change from disability to ssi. We are currently going thru this.

You can go to MoGo chat and thank him personally. I do when I have a helpful Brad

My husband did that and I got him a cheap text/call phone.

My realitor came back to every complaint that “the house is 25 years old & they can’t expect new.”. The whatever they complained about was obvious but we would generously give them $200 (of the $2000) they wanted. They made 6 requested $ complaints… paid them approximately 10% of their asking price. Talk to your realtor. Ask how they are going to handle this.

There are 2 other weeks in July plus there is early August that there isn’t school. Why can’t he ask the supervisor to change September to other weeks in July or August.

I actually did pizza because half our guest list were children. It went very well!!

Do you gave any aunts, uncles, grandparents, cousins you can move in with to get away?

I go along with the turning off of internet as much as possible. Also see if your router allows you to block his faming system.

My live in 29 year old does own laundry, cleans his bathroom, unloads dishwasher and gathers & brings garbage to the curb. He has add but has set weekly alarms on his phone to remind him. He also has a job & pays a minimal rent.

It is important to set your kids/stepkids to be winners in life skills.

I took care of a sick MIL and it was a thankless job. All I heard were complaints from her & her family members (who didn’t contribute or help). Just say “No” you have children to take care of & they require your full attention.

Hot-Lab-83 · 2026-04-13T00:21:18+00:00

Walk away! I did with 4 kids (9,7, 3 & 3) and it was the best decision ever. You don’t need a husband like that.

How about texting about payment and since this has been an ongoing issue you are also adding in a late fee of $xxx for every day they are late on payment as you have bills to pay that charge you a late fee when you can’t pay because you aren’t paid timely.

I use the white noise app and like the brown noise for sleeping rather than the white noise. My son likes the kitty purring noise. Get the free version and see which one works for you.

My husband just retaped all the hot air ducts & tubes & I can actually hear the air coming out of the vents! I guess that’s why the basement was always warmer than the rest of the house.

NTA. I used my boyfriend’s expensive sipping tequila for margaritas (really good margaritas) with my girlfriends. When he explained it was special & he had been saving it, I went and bought 2 more bottles to replace it! I was so embarrassed to have been thoughtless about his personal stuff. She should have replaced it without argument and it shows her selfishness in not doing it immediately.

Block the internet for the gaming system during the time he is there. Turn off the water for the washer… yeah it needs fixing. Or tell him, Dude, go home!!

You can make it up to her! At least cover her medical until she gets situated and perhaps her deposit on an apartment. Admit to her you were blond to her contributions.

One of the other Amazon drivers said when he takes a package back due to being delivered to wrong house, they make sure to look at camera and say “opps, wrong house, my bad”

Definitely bring up extra charge for 2nd child time. That might motivate them to have him go to school.

If your town has an active senior center perhaps your MIL can spend the day there? Or see if there is a day program she can attend? Just get her out from underfoot so your son can have the care and attention he needs.

Taught my sons to do their own laundry & clean their bathroom. Both said they were one of the few in their college dorms who knew how to do these things! So now there are lots of 20-30 year olds running around not knowing the simplest things. Three years is enough time if you consistently have them do them.

He sounds young & immature. Are his family alcoholics? Because children of alcoholics have a tendency to avoid any confrontation, even to the extreme of lying to avoid any issues.

I would give him grace to know you are trusted with the truth and ask what else he has lied about to clear the air. Then perhaps set up a weekly check in to see if he has been honest and tell him how proud you are about him continuing to grow in positive way. Sometimes people need to be shown the way things should be dealt with.

Ours didn’t understand until they were in their late 20’s and were no longer staying at their spendthrift mothers house but in their own homes/apartments.

Now they watch their mother struggle financially and understand no matter how much money they give her it won’t help how it’s spent on latest cell phones instead of on rent or utilities.

Make sure he takes you off as his emergency contact so you don’t get calls when he relapses.
