easy life..

Hi there vanities, my older brother is very lazy. I know he do that to make my parents angry. He sometimes just sit in front of television to play Playstation. He stop when me and dad decided to sell that PS game.

hello vanities, sorry to hear about this situation. anyway, i may have missed a post from you mentioning the age of your son so i dont know if he fully know what he is doing or he is just plain aware that you will always accept him no matter what. i dont know what kind of parent you guys are to him and i cannot say that his behavior roots from the way you raised him. i said this based on personal experienced as well as from friends and people i have met all my life. let me tell you something. my mom have treated my brother like the king in our home (single mom so she thinks she is doing my brother a favor) my brother dont know a thing and will ask mom to this and that for him and have done the same thing to me and thinks that life is as easy as it was growing up. at a young age i have argued with my mom that what she is doing is not right and that she is making him a lame old fart BUT she dont believe me and gets upset with me coz she thinks i am dictating her what she needs to do. that was almost 25 years (my estrange brother will be 29 this month). NOW, he dont know a thing have hurt his own family and cheated many times to his wife. he blames everybody but himself if things doesnt go the way he wants it to be. he dont want to work at the beginning and just rely to what ME can give to him and will always ask for more despite the imposibility of it. when he find a job he wants to have the highest possible rank when it is silly coz he didnt even finish college and just uses all my mom's money (and even mine) to have fun in college days. such story i know is common to some family too, and i have read it here. i believe that a kid's behavior starts at home and only get tested by our environment. i have blamed my mom in the beginning coz my brother have hurt so many people in his life already but until now he is not aware of it and will not accept his mistake. he is still blaming me for his faults in life and not really doing what he thinks is right not only for himself but most for his family (he have 3 kids) he promised to himself that he is not gonna follow our estrange dad's path BUT heck he is doing worst. i have learned to accept my mom despite all this but i have told her that i am no longer accepting his son and since last year i am not talking to him coz i am already tired of his whining and being such a baby when he needs to be responsible in life now. anyway, i hope you see my point. like i said i dont know what kind of parent are you so if i offend you in some way that is not my intention, i am just giving a personal view based on my own experienced. have a good one!

Ah....that's too bad. For the most part my kids are hard workers and pitch in....when they are around. My son is a very hard worker..but he has a bad back...his wife however is the one who is always here for me....always doing and never questions or complains about what to do...she has been a God send!

i earn something by myself without my parent help, i being taught to be independent and live in a hard life so i wont take things easily and im happy they treated me that way at least wherever i go im not being to independent to my parent, you can try to make your son try to achieve something more but it takes time you cant just push him to do it because he will hate it =0

i also have some experience of that kind. but i can't remember and i can't count in my fingers, how my kids treat my and their mom like that. kids nowadays are really hard to handle, especially in their teenage years...
