    Oh this is priceless. Honestly? A woman, infact the whole family, are at the end of their tether with how the son is behaving. Disrespectful to his parents, quite frankly sounds like he's going no where. His own Mother had to cover her bedroom door with heavy furniture to stop him getting in. But all this is perfectly fine because she considers the circumstance her Grandson was born into unfavorable?

    If this thread was totally the same, bar the OP views on the life her Grandson was born into you'd all be offering the normal amazing advice instead of bullying her. I'm not saying I agree with her, but they're her views, back off a little. OP is having what sounds like a horrible time at home, she comes on here wanting a little support and advice and just gets abuse. If you were in her shoes, how would that make you feel?

    For what it's worth, you honestly sound like you've tried all you can for your son. But from this I'm just gathering he isn't a very nice person, and there isn't much you can do when people by nature just aren't nice. I'd go with what your Husband said and make life a little tougher at home for him so it's his own choice to leave.

    Can you really not see that OP is probably the root cause of all her son's problems?

    It's one thing to have strong religious beliefs but to foist them upon your children is just plain wrong. The boy has probably been teased since an early age because of the attitude of his parents.

    As for her 'christian' beliefs, sorry, she's a hypocrite, plain and simple.

    I suspect we are all wasting our breath.

    The OP seems to have vanished. I'm sure I am not the only one who isn't in the least suprised by this.
