He is getting his money from an inheritance he got from my father. Originally it was for college and that's what he used it for but when he dropped out he started spending it on shit and I couldn't touch it, it was his bank account.
It's not like my love for my children hinges on their success but when they do become successful I am very proud of them. My younger son was a dopehead living in a house full of dopeheads and working as a convenience store clerk before he went back to school and got his trade certificates. Didn't make me any less happy with him, he EARNED that money that he spent on dope.
I just want this kid the fuck out of my house and doing something with his life. In no universe would I consider partying at night and playing video games all day "doing something" with his life.
If you want him out you're not going to get him out by wishing him out.
It's not easy but sometimes you have to tell someone "Move out". I mean it's not like they can't visit or something like that.
I mean really... you say you don't want the law involved but... if he's doing drugs that might happen anyway.
The trick is making him want the same thing you want. And trying to beg and plead hasn't worked yet so... perhaps something opposite might be what's required.
Might want to consider a therapist or counselor for advice on how to get him off the drugs and out. So that he's not draining you - if not of money then of energy.
Is it normal to want my son OUT OF THE HOUSE!?
