I cant believe my DGS is so stupid! He and his Dad managed to get $200 from the bank and what did they do? Bought a bunch of beer and got drunk! Yep! Well, that young man has just placed the straw that broke the camels back. I wouldnt help him now and am so mad, I dont really want to even talk to him! Sarah told him he would just have to sit in jail or whatever because he wasnt getting a dime from her!
I had such high hopes for Fred after he graduated. He got a job, a car, had a nice girlfriend, who dumped him because he quit his job for no reason and wrecked his car and wont do a thing to help himself.
This behavior just cant continue and if it does, he will have to face the consequences. Its a shame because even though he is bipolar and has some mental issues, he isnt dumb and knows better. He goes to see a counselor at the mental health center and Sarah just told me this morning that he now has a case manager who is taking over his finances and going to be pretty much running his life for him.
To be honest, I just dont care any more!
Sorry for being so negative but I know all of you give me all your love and support! I love my Ladybugs!

Definitely the last straw! Is his DF an over-age teenager??
Well, ya know what? Now he's made your decision for you and you don't need to keep wondering. One of those "it is what it is" situations that you can't change.
You might want to consider asking Sarah to not relay details to you if it is upsetting for you and DH. Yes, you care about family, but you must take care of your own mental health first & foremost.

What kind of an idiot is that father, anyway. For one thing, I though they didn't hjave the money to pay his fine, $200 would have covered that. I hope you realize now that both are playing you, Jackie. Don't you or Sarah give in.
I'm glad someone will be taking care of Fred's finances and hope his father has no say in it. Is Fred over 18 now?

Last straw is right! Oh boy...like "they" say...the nut doesn't fall far from the tree does it? They couldn't come up with the money for the fine but could for beer? What a mess Jackie! I'm with Kathey...don't you and Sarah buckle and bail him out of this one. He has made his own bed and will be sleeping on a cot now.
I feel your heartache...I'm so sorry.
Jackie this is just so sad. It's going to take some really tough love to make those two grow up . Yes, sounds like his Dad needs to grow up too.
I understand your anger, Jackie.
When people won't help themselves then they must suffer the consequences.
