Son refuses to leave home

Our son who we have been the guardians of since he was 12 recently moved home. He is 23. He has been home for 8 months and paid rent for only 2. We asked him about 6 weeks ago to pay his rent for food and hot water. He was told he had until Nov. 1, 2010 to do something. Today he said he has no money to pay us and no where to go. He has received 3 cheques in the mail over the last 2 months from grants he received. He has not contributed on cent to help us. We want him to leave but I am afraid he will just not go and there will be a conflict. We have 2 other children left at home and think his influence is a bad example and that they will also want to take advantage of us. We are not young. 59 and 61 years old. Our daughters are 13 and 16 years old. We cannot afford to support him any longer. He does not obey the house rules, totally disrespectful about them.

RE: Son refuses to leave home

Father, help this mother and father to understand that they have no obligation to house and feed an adult who has a source of income and refuses to contribute to the household. Give them the strength to apply tough love and if necessary to evict him from their home. Letting this young man remain in such an irresponsible state is not helping him but rather is reinforcing that there has no need to take care of himself because he can force them to do it for him. Let them remember the scripture...Honor thy Father and Mother that YOUR days may be long upon the earth. If he chooses not to...let him go his own way...and let these parent's insist that he does. In Jesus name...Amen!
