He’s given his precious a talking to. I came home from work yesterday to find the dishes done. Dinner cooked.
Not sure who did what . I knew hubby cooked.
So I proceeded to tell hubby about the 3 bags of groceries that was still on the living room’s floor since before we came home on Tuesday.
After he picked those up I showed him the doonas on the lounge from the sleep over and not put away .
The myriads of alcohol bottles on my art and craft table. The lap top charger still plugged in as was her mobile charger.
So off he went to tell her to collect her crap.
I asked him what did he say? Apparent he told her I want her out and he wants her to stay . But if she’s to stay she needed to clean up after herself, do her chores etc etc .
Her response ? I’ll try to be more considerate.
Hmmm we will see. I’m going to go to him now if I need her to do anything and between the two of them I don’t care who does what as long as it’s done.
The more he picks up for her the more he will see what a mess his precious is.
Let see if his daddy skills are up to scratch .

Sounds like a lot of tension in the household. I totally understand, been there, lived that. 😦 I had a mother in law who enabled my daughter to do drugs as well as her son since she provided them money, paid all their bills, ‘kept’ them, etc….

He’s just like that . He provided for his brother all these years . Then the nephew . I’ve told him many a time . Help those that help themselves not an endless pit.
That’s where our money goes. His nephew does drugs . His brother comes asking for money. All excuses then he goes home and gives to his son.
Or hubby gives money to his mum. The brother then goes to the mum to ask for money.
The thing is hubby is good to my family so I can’t say anything .
My way of coping ? Spend it all and make sure we are always in so much debt. So much mortgage that he has no money to give .

Might as well spend our hard earn money or someone else will. I even moved us an hour away and that didn’t help. We were and still is their personal bank. Loan but no repayment .

The two bandits in question are now living 1000 miles away! they knew better than to come to me for cash. Their plane tickets courtesy of Mother-In-Law! Out of sight out of mind…in some ways I feel its repayment.

Sorry for your loss. Some days I think how can things go horribly wrong? His nephew was our page boy . He’s the same age as my sister. My sister works, has a partner bought a house . Meanwhile he’s homeless on the streets doing drugs. They both were born here. To the same opportunities. The only thing is different upbringing . Different environment .
My biggest worry for my kids is drugs .

I still talk to my daughter, she says her and hubby are doing well, that they changed their lives around and are no longer using drugs; I hope for their sake its true, because one day their two kids (who are in foster care) will probably knock on their door. Sad to hear about your nephew. Drugs cause such devastation to families.

Great to hear. They need to decide to turn their lives around . Last heard his nephew is in rehab. He’s got a girlfriend now. So may be it’s her that turned him around . Love is a powerful thing .
