I Do I Get a 38 Year Old Son Who Is Very Disrespectful. and Unappreciative Out of My House?
Question by cookie: I do I get a 38 year old son who is very disrespectful. and unappreciative out of my house?
I just let him move into my home because out if motherly concern, he is being having a lot of medical issues he wasn’t doing very well at another family members’ home, so he is at my home, which I gladly took him in and have been most caring and helpful but gets annoyed if I just mention him going online to get information for medical help etc. He said he would do it later than he gets on the computer and I thought he was playing his pogo games or emailing his friends the way he usually does and I asked him why couldn’t go online first for the very important information and he goes off telling me to mind my own business and a lot of horrible things. I have been making him as comfortable as possible as a matter a fact too much. I am forgiving person but the horrible remarks said me made me respond in the same low class way. I don’t want him in my life anymore. get social security and my common-law-husband does to and have been helping him. He has diabetic neuropathy. I feel am stuck with such a disrespectful son. I don’t want to live with so much anger and bitterness, I have already been dealing with my husband with his alcoholism for 25 years and my son’s father’s drug addiction for 20 years and while angry I still manage to sincerely help my children when I could,but they are so angry in life.

It’s time for touch love. When you know he will be gone for a day, have all the locks changed and put his stuff outside in boxes. Give him some money if you think necessary, but not too much. If you are afraid of him, make sure someone is with you when he returns. Do not let him come in the house for any reason. If necessary call the police. Otherwise, soon he will be your 45 year old son, that is still living at home and being mean and disrespectful.

well i think you should sit him down have a calm talk with him saying something like”whilst i appreciate you are ill you are also a grown man who has to take responsibility for his health and actions,however old you are ,you are living in my house and there are certain rules to obey,i dont want to nag you but i dont feel you ahve any respect for me, my home and you are not to concerned about your health,if your attitude towards me doesnt change then im going to have to ask you to leave this house and find somewhere of your own to live
also add that whilst you appreciate that you are ill, you as his mother is also sick with stress of being a constant carer, there are certain things tyour son can do to help himself, sitting at a computer isnt one of them
basically tell him to straighten up or show him the door, you are also entitled to some life and rest your self
