Hi
I have a son 24, been working a year now after lots of trying.
I live with son and my partner of 13 years.
Whenever I do anything for my son I get an earful from my partner.
He's 24 you shouldn't be doing that for him! Yet I can do it for him and nothing said. He grew up in his words having to do everything himself, nobody gave him anything he saved up for things himself.is mum and dad split up when he was 19.
Thing that's caused row this time is private health insurance. Since being together the insurance as come out of the monthly bills, so no son is working he thinks he should pay it himself, son says he's not bothered take him off it, but I'm thinking for the amount it cost £35 month should I pay it? Because the nhs is in a bad state and just say
Another thing is tonight he's going physio(son) and he's asked will I go with him as there's forms to fill in and he's dyslexic and finds it embarrassing if he can't spell it or read what's on the form. So I told partner I'm going to take him tonight and straight away it's what you taking him for, he's old enough to go himself, what you running after him for and on and on. Before that I said you might have to take him because I've taken laxative and if stomach is off! Straight away don't put me forward to take him, he can go himself, which he can but not the first time with the forms to fill.
I'm convinced he won't do anything for anyone, he's dads got altzeimers and his wife (who he doesn't see eye to eye with) ask could he sit with his dad while she had her hair done answer NO she also asked could he come and visit him more than once a week NO he's doing once and that's it!
Is it me, being to caring (or maybe not) and him being a selfish git.
It's got to the point where I can't do anything for my son, without thinking will he go off on one.
