I adore my grandson, and was happy when he moved in with us back in 2021. It was only supposed to be for a few weeks. Then he moved his SO in with us, and same problems: Never a thank you, and lots of long hot showers running up the bill. They stayed for nearly three years.

They finally moved out late last year. Mrs. Aristus and I are still thrilled to have our house to ourselves again.

I don't understand. Does she have a signed lease? Fla Dem Mar 21 #5

It seems like sometimes not having to be responsible breeds itself and people get worse, not better Maraya1969 Mar 21 #14
