I'm just wondering how long he's been there, most people like to live on their own, you have to recall when you were younger, how much most people want to get out on their own, and make their own way, get away from the "tribal elders" and "not in my house" parental unit atmosphere. I think sucessful parents are ones that help prepare you for life, at least give you the benefit of the doubt of trying to teach you the basics, "get a degree", "learn a trade that pays", "do something you like at least", "save what you can", "be responsible", "don't screw up your credit", "make a smart investment or 2", "plan a retirement early", etc. etc.. I got out as soon as I graduated H.S. at 17, eventually got that degree,paid for that myself, also learned a good paying trade operating earthmoving equip. and then moved on to upper managment in the construction industry, with a solid foundation underneath me, had all the low paying jobs for awhile too, and it really was tough for more than a few years, but that is what makes you want to do better, because you work hard all day and can barely put food on the table let alone have some for a rainy day. Now I can write my own ticket after all the time put in. That aside I hope he's done something in life, not been at home all these years, (that is a real late start)if not, the rude awakening will not be pleasant, and that negativity regarding the knocking of others, goes hand in hand with leading an inactive life, you have to stay active, it certainly helps, no time to think too much. I hope it works out somehow, but it's one of those tough situations that has to be reckoned with at some point. Either it's time for a heavy duty skull session and an agreed timely exit plan or the boot !

Show Coverage: Journey to Ankeny - by Cindy Ladage. We left Illinois on the first day of July and headed north and west for Ankeny, Iowa. Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
