[quote=Anonymous]This is such a typical DCUM thread. Crazy armchair warriors come out swinging, demanding charts and rules or saying that OP has to say no no no. Absolutely ridiculous advice that no one actually would do in real life. Here's the real life answer. First, stop with the "step son" crap. After 20 years this kid deserves better than that. Treat him no different than the biological kids. He's gotten an internship. Good for him! Telling us it's his "third choice" is an unnecessary dig and an insult. Lots of interns don't get their first choice or any choice at all. You WANT him to succeed. You WANT him to launch. It's good for him and it's great for YOUR future. So you welcome him in. You tell him he can't park in the garage, period, and you don't do his laundry. As for cooking, you keep doing what you've always done for the family, and you include him in it. Just expect help with the dishes. [/quote]
