So, I have a kid, actually he is a Man since he is going to be 20 in September. Are people genetically bred with certain aspirations? Because I gotta tell ya, not to bag on my own kid, actually perhaps I am cuz' I am pissed, but he is lazy. He still hasn't graduated, he has missed it by 1.5 or 2 credits I think, but he keeps going back. WHY? who the hell knows. It isn't as though he is trying his damnedest to get the diploma. He hasn't had a job in about a year, the one he did have, which was for a pretty good company, Bush Gardens, he just let it go. It's like he has no freaking drive and I am sick and tired of dodging questions that my Parents ask about him.
What brought this little rant on is this. He was on the couch and one of his friends called. He is the same age as my son, has a nice car and has always held a job. They hang out all the time. Anyway, I guess his friends parents are somewhat kicking him out or they want 300.00 a month from him for rent. I told my kid that's a pretty good deal and his comment was if I made him pay that he would just go and get a couple of his friends and get a place. I am like it costs more than that to get a place. He seems to not have any idea on how much it costs to live. It makes me realize even more what an ungreatfull jackass he is. First, he would actually have to get a job and maintain it to be able to pay rent, never mind all the other things he would need to pay for. I am so frustrated, I want him to just leave sometimes, yet I get worried because I can only see a disaster. I work my ass off to have what we have. Perhaps that was my mistake, making it too easy. I don't know.. oh well, I better stop, I'm getting pissed.
