Not feeling myself start work at 6.30 am . Been totally exhausted since 8 so wanted to come home sick but I stayed .Not sure why whether its this immune disorder I could have or something else!!
Come home and junior 24 had a job interview he was catching 2 buses to get to . TXTS me to say he wont make it in time Miss 21 phone him and its my fault because I didn't drive him !!!
I was sitting wodnering why he did ask me so its my fault we have sent him their phone number . And why is he late the bus is running late and he is panicing he will lose his payments .

So dad will cop it when he gets back !!
God some times I wish I wasn't the good parent crying

Too right and, just quietly, anyone over 18 is an adult and one wonders why they are relying on their parents anyway confused

and you took the words right out of my mouth..

Sir 24 is old enough to organise his own way...

Its about time these young adults worked out their own paths in life..

and Micky, if you keep making it easy...

to be truthful, you are not being kind at all..

What happens is... because these young adults rely on their parents... then it becomes learned behaviour, and when they leave home, with a partner, their learned behaviour is transposed.... on to their partner...

Not a good recipe for success as generally both partners have had the same learned behaviour experience... and neither want to take the helm. uh oh

That's the way we are I guess !!
We've been a funny family don't think the EX actually showed to much love/interest and pushed the kids(when they were kids) to me so she could do what she wanted .
Of course my parents took mr 24 every weekend when he was little I didn't want it but they had said yes so the ex pushed him on them !!
That's the way we were he does pay half the rent so that's something

He sent us a txt saying he made it in time . How can you get mad the last interview the other week to work at maca's they interviewed 300 and took person number 1 and interviewed the other 299 because they had to !!

thumbs up Stop babying them and tell them they are adults and should be capable of taking care of themselves by now. Don't let them give you a guilt trip.

haha, yes, I hadnt read everyone elses posts yet after yours.

Sorry Micky, but with all your health problems, you need to focus on you. You have done your time as a parent having to raise children, maybe they should be a little grateful and help YOU out a bit at this tough time.

I am a fair but firm mummy. Tough when I need to be. laugh

I agree with Sangs, if it is an immune disorder the worst thing for you is stress.
So dont let them guilt trip you.

If it is an immune disorder Mickey they medicos shoud be able to devise a way to control it. Just one step at a time
