Anonymous Coward User ID: 1262877 United States 03/07/2011 12:28 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | sound like your son is enjoying his life and you wasted yours serving your slave masters. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 782916I agree with this poster. Show some support. He's enjoying life, and we only get to be young once. Things will change in a few years. Just give it time, and be supportive. You are not your son, and your son isn't you. You cannot make your son do anything against his will, and if you try to push too hard it will only push him away from you (in a very bad way). Toughen up. I agree with both of these posters. I can remember 20 years old...on my knees in the middle of the road begging my father to come fight me...SCREAMING at him calling him a coward. Because he was just like you, maybe a little less wealthy. Now I'm almost 30...and we are best friends. Because we BOTH changed. Enjoy your life. Is all that money/job/etc worth your son, and your respective relationship with him? Maybe dad never was around to spend time with him when he was younger. There were 20 years leading up to now, correct? It seems we all havent lived up to what was expected from our dads... mine is dead....my son is 19. as long as I have a place to live...he has a home. Make the time to repair the relationship if you can life is short. |

I kicked him out and the cops brought him home and said I cant just kick him out. I have to go to the police station pay $50 and follow these papers that aren't really clear and give him 30 days. He is not my tenant he is just a loser pot head drug fuck that makes me want to kill myself for the shame he makes me feel when I just look at him. I have never felt so helpless and angry in my whole life. I actually feel like I don't even love him anymore. Quoting: end of my rope 900551wow you dont love him cause hes a slacker? what a piece ah shit you are hahahah you think he ever thinks the same of you because you're a souless fuck? not everyone is meant to walk the road of te drone worker bee.... for better or for worse i personally dont see why anyone tries anymore everything is sooo fucked up and looks to get even worse.. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 311438 Canada 03/07/2011 12:52 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | the kids only 20 not like hes 35 and the fact hes in any college classes and has any job in this economy is somthing you should be proud of not to mention the fact that nowadays joining the army means that you will probably be sent away somewhere to overthrow a government to propogate the nwo's global takeover with a side mission of laying the groundwork for oil to be hi jacked... so i just dont think its the same as 1960 somthin when you were in on top of that if the kid likes video games well i guess its better than a real "crack" addiction so maybe burn one with the kid and lighten the fuck up. Quoting: gh0zt36 1279274Invite your son away for a weekend. Visiting...ball game whatever!! Invite God Along. GOD. God Bless. |

theONEandONLY User ID: 1276123 United States 03/07/2011 02:24 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Dad, Quoting: Anonymous Coward 791743I'm 20 years old. I have a job. Do you know how many don't have jobs? I have one. Does that mean anything? It doesn't pay what you think I should make, but I perform an important service, cooking for others, delivering their food. It gives me money to do what I want. Do you know what I want, Dad? Do you care what I want? I don't want to join the military. I think it's wrong to kill people because someone tells me to. So I smoke a little, snort a little. I want to enjoy life and not think about all the problems, the wrongs, the injustice, the hypocrisy. Sure I've been busted for drugs. I don't think the laws are fair, necessary, or even legal. Should I set out to change that? Would that embarrass a military man? Do you see what the world is like? How long will it go on? Wouldn't you like to enjoy it while it lasts? I don't save. Why should I give the bank my money, knowing they may steal it like they've stolen everything else they can get their hands on. I took a class for you, Dad. Did you know it was for you? I don't want to go to college, don't want to join the military, don't want to have 6 figures in the bank. But I took the class. It was saying, I love you, in a way I can't verbalize. I don't know yet what I want, but know clearly what I don't want. I'm 20 Dad. Only 20. Maybe some day I'll be as wise as you. Maybe I'll even make some of the choices you made, but until then, help me find myself. I'm sorry about your cars. You know I'm sorry. I'm sorry you feel the way you do. But know this, Dad. I love you. And would love nothing more than having the love returned. Love, Your Son 100% on the money. dad needs to realize the world is a different place. while he may be doing good himeself, there are plenty of others who arent and thus the world his son is growing up in is leading him to a very different type of lifestyle from the past. i am 22. i look for a job everyday. i am a skiller worker even went to a trade school. i like to smoke pot because its the easiest way to rebel the system. its why its on the schedule 1 list. because it leads to self awareness. awareness that alchol and tobacco are much worse. there has never been a recorded death for pot use. i drive stoned everyday and am a better driver because of it. when i smoke im not aggressive, i dont drive crazy, i drive the speed limit, follow the rules. I am enlightened because i know that weed is not the problem. its the governent for choosing to make money of its citizens by making a harmless plant illegal. it is how they support themselves. cops are just the newest tax man and that is why EVERYONE HATES THEM. when did we have TRUE respect for cops? when they werent made into someone who bothers us for something we percieve as hurting no one. and i know you dont understand but do you watch sports? do you realize that playing a game is better then watching any sport in the world. YOU ARE THE MASTER OF THE GAME. you control whether you win or lose. and you just keep getting better till eventually you are better then others but there are still better players. ANYONE CAN PLAY ITS EASY you dont have to have to play all though highschool and college to go "pro" you jsut dedicate some time and you will get better at it just like anything else. YES games can be addicting, but have you ever actually stopped to see what the game is about? or what you ahve to do? or actually HOW COMPLICATED IT IS? the games these days are not your pong of yesterday. they are more involved then most movies with full backgrounds and storylines, some even have books to tell other parts of the story which you arent playing. THE WORLD IS DIFFERENT. get to know your son instead of being the bad guy. OP being exactly like your son i can answer all your questions. |
