    All we have from the OP is that she is immature and lazy, that they have rows and that she gives him "verbal abuse". This does not mean that she is an "abusive girlfriend" or that they are in an abusive relationship.


    You've obviously never been verbally abused on a regular basis.


    The phrase "Sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me" is a load of bull.... Its debilitating and destroys every bit of your confidence if your a non confrontational sort of person.

  • I know this has been said already, but I think your son really needs to end the relatonship himself. Firstly, it is much less likely to have any repercussions from the girlfriend and secondly it give both people in the relationship some self respect.

  • How can she sit around and watch t.v? Does she pay you guys keep? Anyway, he should tell her himself tbh. Is he that scared of her that he won't talk to her? She sounds like a right catch.

    Well, the OP has been back but not bothered with an update or even a comment so I'm guessing they are happy with their little trolling exercise.

    TBH LandyAndy, if you read the OP's other recent posts, I don't think he was trolling.

    I think he probably thought he had 2 reasonable options to get this girl to leave his home & just wanted other posters opinions about the best one and also that he didn't think it odd that his son couldn't/wouldn't tell her to go.

    As the majority of replies have been less than complimentary about his son, he's probably decided not to come back to the thread - which is his own choice.

    Your son is 24! Its very nice of you to want to get involved in this, but you need to leave him to do this himself! I know its your house so you are actually involved but if he lets you do this then it will keep happening! It is horrible breaking up with someone but everyone has had to do it and its about self respect. Step away and let him to do this

    You've got it in one.

    No wonder the OP hasn't come back with the responses on this thread.
  • If she is that abusive and lazy then why has she been allowed (by you the home owner) to stay so long!!? Are you sure you are not now exaggerating to justify the fact you are chucking her out. I agree he should do it, with you on standby in another room if necessary.

    Either the OP didn't like some of the comments
    OR
    Remedy not needed as son and GF have made up after their latest row.

    He was looking for sympathy and validation and got neither.
