Need advice from other parents and even teens who just graduated from high school?

I'm at a loss. My 18 yo son graduated HS (June). He's young for his age and agreed to let him take yr off going to college (trust me, he's not ready). Told him he needs more hrs at job to pay car paymt %26amp; insur. I let him take a month to hang out with friends %26amp; do what he wants (not illegal, so don't think that). He added some hrs to work schedule and now works 27 hrs/wk. He plays online games the entire time he isn't working or at friend's playing games. At least once/month he's either ';sick'; %26amp; can't go to work or his body aches, etc. so I make him call his boss because that's b.s. So my husband %26amp; I came up with 3 plans for him - go to comm.college FT %26amp; work PT %26amp; he'd have to pay his car paymt/ins, nothing else. Another choice is to attend college PT %26amp; have FT job, have car paymt/ins %26amp; pay $100 rent; or not go and get FT job, pay for car/ins and $200rent. He called us crazy, unreasonable %26amp; he doesn't make plans %26amp; says we always spring things on him too soon. WHAT do we do here??

wow why are you giving him that many choices and if hes complaining about it considering how nice you are being.... kick him out and make him find his own wayNeed advice from other parents and even teens who just graduated from high school?
Well the only thing a parent an do after their kid graduated high school, is give them them means and opportunitys to make it in life and if they don't advantae of them, well sorry and boohoo. Tell him you have given him the plan for life and if he doesn't like it oh well raise the rent. But he should realize that he has it good where he's at cause he won't be able to make it on his own as irresponsible as he sounds. So have a nice long talk with him an tell him it's about time to grow up and become a man.
You should allow hiim some time to choose an option and some time to actually do it.





But I think you're right for doing this, he needs some motivation.





If he doesn't comply, then I would kick him out of the house.
