My son is 16 too. He is a lazy bum. It takes a whole lot of yelling to get him to do something.As tired as I am He is tired of hearing me. But you know what... too freaking bad. He wants this that and the other thing. He don't get it... because I don't pay lazy bums to cut my grass! That's his chore. Today DH asked him why he hasn't gone out there to cut it yet... My sons reply was "whats the rush"? DH flipped! You bet the boy moved real quick after that!
