Re: Pain of "Parenting"!
Bailing him out wont help either, i know of too many bad uns rely heavily on the "its not my fault its this or that" excuse, only them can change the error of their ways once they see the error of their ways & want to change that - otherwise will always be leeching the goodwill & patience of others & abusing those nice people that care.
Its hard not to feel responsiblity for them & want to help them but they can so easily abuse that to a point that it doesn't actually help them in the end - sometimes tough love is neccessary!! Hard i know.
Dont be so hard on yourself Brian u have done the best u can but the rest is upto this youngster im afraid!! Be supportive ear & help to the grandparents is all u can do.
