Yep, make hay when the sun shines. Work as many hours as you can when you are young, save your cash, invest well. If you do those things when you are older your money will work for you rather than you for your money.



Sounds like you raised him well Annie. ac_drinks

You've given him a good values foundation, so he'll be just fine.

Quote from: "Annie"Oh and they are going to get married before having kids but that won't be for a bit I think. They're gonna see how it is living together first lol They've been dating for 3 years now.


Yeah, I remember that plan.  ac_umm  It didn't work out exactly as I wanted it to.  ac_toofunny  



Luckily I was in my final semester of college and it didn't effect me from finishing and getting my BS.



Advise your son to get his secondary education as soon as possible. The sooner he gets a jump on his career the better. In today's world, getting a decent job is hard enough without some kind of higher Ed or Technical school under your belt; in the near future it will be impossible.



BTW, great news about your cat. I'll keep my fingers crossed.   ac_smile

He's 22, so it should be number one on his to do list. The longer he waits, the harder it will be.

Ya, I've given up nagging him about it. He says he has a plan so I'll just let him do his plan. I'll just support him any way I can and he always knows if things don't work out, he can always move back home. Although...I'm thinking/hoping this 3rd time will be the charm he stays on his own lol Oh I sound like a horrible Mom! lol

I can understand your predicament Annie..



You want to encourage your son, but you don't want to push him so much that he rebels..



It's a balancing act.

Well at least I don't have to consider putting him down! This was a parody on Facebook I saw:
