And when I say kids I mean adults in their 20s with kids of their own.

Hes been married to this woman for 7 years now and both of her adult children refuse to move out or do anything with their lives. Each one has a couple kids at this point despite having no job or future prospects.

They live like total animals too. For some reason they are constantly ripping doors off of hinges and breaking furniture, they never clean anything or even pick up clutter. Their house is infested with gnats because when my dad is out driving(he is a truck driver) they refuse to even take out trash or wash dishes.

The youngest one is the biggest problem. Guy is twenty but acts like he is 13. If he at any time doesnt get something he wants he pretends to cry and then breaks something. Hes gone through several cell phones because he gets mad and smashes them. They just got him a new phone for Xmas because it was all he wanted and the next day he sold it so he could buy cigarettes.

His mom makes excuses for him every time and says that it isnt his fault because his dad had depression so maybe he has it too. Hes just a total piece of shit though. Hes one of those people that will just constantly lie to your face and it is completely transparent.

Its my dads own fault though. Ive tried telling him that hes being taken advantage of but he doesnt want a divorce because this is like his 5th marriage and he wants to make it work. It sucks though to know that he is fully supporting a bunch of deadbeats in a home that he rarely even visits and that he is out trucking nearly every day for them. Its messed up but part of me hopes the stepson fucks up bad enough to get locked up so he is out of their hair.

No real point to this topic I suppose. Just blogfaq-ing about a crappy situation.

Has he ever been diagnosed with autism?

I DO NOT mean this as an insult, there are many loved ones in my life that are Autistic/Asperger's. And I immediately thought of them. They don't mean any harm at all, I just know that something being out of order with the world is like life or death to them. I saw my pastor's 5 year old go into a violent crying rage because his 4 year old sister "violated the new physics" of the world he imagined and created with his toys. Granted, he was 5, not 20... but I'm just saying.

He isnt autistic, I wouldnt say he is anywhere on the spectrum. Im not an expert by any means but my niece has pretty severe developmental autism so I do have some experience with it.

Hes just an asshole.

It would be impossible to not be a better person in comparison.

I live across the country though and he knows exactly how I feel about his house full of deadbeats.

I'm asking how unemployed bums with no prospects that behave like spoiled brats manage to get a gal who is desperate enough to have sex and have kids with them. Upon reflection though it's not uncommon over here to see chavs with many kids despite never having a job so I'm not at all surprised. Just curious really.

If you are good as far as life, and he knows how you feel. Then all I would do is make sure he gives nothing to the step people when he is gone.

Yeah he knows

He just always feels guilty and thinks he can change people by talking to them. I dont think I know of a time it has worked out for him. I think he is also terrified of being alone

So basically you're asking why do men and women make poor life choices? >_>

In general, unintended pregnancies are far more common among idiots for some reason which has remained a mystery to modern science =p Otherwise we've set up a benefits system which creates incentives for unmarried women to recklessly have kids, especially when you consider that many of the single moms on benefits today were themselves the children of single moms on benefits.

And, of course, you have all the men and women who stupidly assume that their partner will change. There's still that perception that people will step up once they become parents.

Have you tried Tinder? Or going to a bar? Or pretty much anything? Really not that hard, tbh. And if you want to make a really shit life choice, you can try dating a single mom. You know they put out.

Rejection at the swipe of a finger? No thanks. I want to actually feel rejected.

I do this now and then. I have no game though. Still I'm improving my social skills I guess.

I mean what maybe easy for some isn't for others obviously. We can't all be a stud muffin like you.
