[quote=Anonymous]Digitally lock or physically take his cell phone by 10pm every night, and be strong in the face of any pushback. Continue to verify homework and test preparedness ("it says here you have a history test tomorrow. Let me see your study guide so I can ask a couple of questions.") Again, be strong in the face of pushback. Stop buying sweetened drinks. Teach him to bring his dishes to the dishwasher, from his room or the dining table. Teach him to bring his dirty laundry to the washer, from his room or his sports bag. Remember he will be miserable in his adult home life if he expects women to do all domestic adulting for him.[/quote]
