NP. Thank you. I needed this today. [/quote]

And, as I like to remind my children, at 13, they have less than 5 years left under my roof. They will always be welcome but [b]my responsibility to feed them, house them and clothe them ends the day they turn 18[/b]. For the next 5 years, they can either absorb all the advice my advanced years can provide them or not. They can work hard and get into college (which I will support). If not, at 18, they need to be prepared to look after themselves.

It was the information my mom gave me when I was a difficult teenager and it set me up to be a responsible adult with a good relationship with my parents. [/quote]

You're one cold-hearted b---ch. [/quote]
