That means that you will feed and clothe them and give them shelter, but other than that, they are on their own? Is it worth a shot?

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2002 Report Share Posted January 1, 2002 , sorry this is late. I hope things are better today. I have been in your shoes many time and I wish that we could just give everything up and let them that care of them self. But be also feel that if we don't keep on them then they will never do anything. I have a son like that. I put stuff in his room to put away and he does not do it. And the food crumbs and wrappers and everything all piled on top. I get mad and yell but he still does not do anything. So today I cleaned his room and I have 5 bags of toys and 2 bags of clothes that are going to my friend who owns a used clothing store. I took everything out of his room but his bed. I told him that he gets nothing back until he can stop acting like that. I will not live in a pigs pen and I won't let him make my house look messy. Yes I took the dressers out his desk out and his TV, playstation and N64 out. All he has is a bed. I only gave him one pillow and his sleeping bag to sleep with nothing else. And if he wants more he is to make his own bed and keep it made. I even got so mad that I took all his pictures off of the wall. Know trust me all his pictures are hockey posters and everything to do with hockey. It looks so bare but that is what he will live with until he can look after then.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2002 Report Share Posted January 1, 2002 Moniqie: I hope the first day of the new year brought you more hope. Cause it sounds like you are running low....sorry about the stress that you seem to be going through. Five kids alone would unravel me and five kids with special needs.....you are wonderful. But even wonderful needs a break sometimes. I am so sorry that you are not getting the help that you need. I just can't believe that someone...anyone...could not help you out and relieve some of your burden for you. Hope this year is better than last...
