Obviuosly he has no idea on thhis.

HE is paying for all repairs the first wreck. He will be paying for insurance increase. Told him long ago, while he is doing good in high school I would pay insurance. Maybe started too easy from the get go.

I am stuck NOT being a total hardass because he does do tons to help me and the wife with his sister and litle bro with no complaints. The wife could not work full time if he didn't drive them to some things.

Do they really grow up and move out?? time for another beer

Why should he care? It doesn't affect him. Until he feels the pain, he probably won't change. Usually the right thing isn't the easiest option.

I started shaping up when I slid out in front of an old T-bird, which smashed in the passenger side door on my Dodge truck. Parents wouldn't fix it, I didn't have any money, so I drove a 1 door truck for months. Try hauling a girl when entry requires sliding past the steering wheel and across the seat. Big pimpin' baby!
