[quote=Anonymous]OP is mostly being unreasonable. You agreed to let your son live with you for a year and to treat your son as an adult (which he is). You don't get to back out of an agreement because you have second thoughts about it. You made the agreement and you need to abide by it, just as your son does. Adults play video games. Adults make messes. He's obviously smart if UVA is an option for him, so skipping class shouldn't be your concern as long as his school performance is acceptable (which itself should only be an issue if you are funding it). Adults do laundry and your son needs to be expected to do the same. And to suffer any consequences of not doing it. Chores should be whatever you agreed on originally. OP needs to treat this person as an adult, abide by the original agreement's terms, and let his son fail if necessary. If this is too much of a burden, then give him a deadline by which he needs to find alternative living arrangements.[/quote]
