.........They are going to live in our houses, eat all our food,make big messes all over the place, crash our cars, date losers, eat the half-a sandwhich you left in the fridge and were thinking about all day at work, ruin their credit, try to ruin yours, ask if their fat ass friends can stay over for a "few" days, come home drunk, break the washing machine, leave every single "got dam" light in the house on, sit in your chair drinking the last beer when you come home from a hard days work, and beg for every little thing that their grubby little minds can think of.
LOVE YA KIDS!!! "who drank the last of the milk and left the empty container in the fridge?"........
Is that why my mom kicked me out of the house at 18?
You know legally you don't have to anything for your kids after they turn 18.
The attitude expressed above could easily be changed with a little discipline earlier on in lives.
Kids tend to be a product of there parents and there environment. You allow them to get away with that stuff, then they are going to run with it.
I guess now that I'm older I really appreciate my mom kicking me out when I turned 18. I've learned a lot and my relationship with my mother has grown tremendously. Of course I was pissed at first.
Pampering kids does not help them.
A little tough love in the early years can go a long ways.
