It is entirely related to that youngest son of mine who is just about to finish his first year of higher education immersion at the end of the week. His previously stated goal to go to work this summer to pay for next year's schooling has changed. He now has just enough money to carpool with some other guys to New York, Boston and Maryland…
He has made it clear that he intends to further extend his "Peter Pan" syndrome, adolescent (mis)behavior through the foreseeable future. I can not tolerate his simplistic, unplanned and irresponsible attitude beyond Friday.
Effective Friday, I am severing all financial support of this boy's drama. I may continue to store his stuff, piled up in the room he has called his bedroom for a few months as a courtesy. But it is no longer going to be his bedroom. He will have to find another one, someplace else. His car's insurance dies when the policy renews in a few weeks.
And I hate his current girlfriend! I could feel my IQ points being whittled away just being stuck in the truck with her going to dinner and back last night. She wants to earn a Mrs. Degree and write poetry while raising a fresh handful of look-a-like, bland faced Mormon babies after leaving school.
