That is bad. But it usually goes back to the parents at least a little.
My BIL, God bless, served in Vietnam and was a great guy. But a little too easygoing.
My sister keeps saying my nephew will land on his feet.
No one wants to tell their children the harsh truth anymore for fear of upsetting their delicate souls.
Good grief.
The kid lives on his own at least, but i fear he will drift through life...
I thank God every DAY for the family that raised me. I was out of the nest at 17 and never looked back. And I LOVE my parents and sibling - it’s not like I was running away from anything; I just had a great springboard to jump from, thanks to good parenting.
It’s a rare, RARE talent these days.
P.S. None of my kids live with me, either. It was, ‘18 and OUT, Boys!’
