“Hey you! You stupid imbecile! Don’t you know how to drive?? Can’t you even read the signs in the parking lot?” I looked at my friend who was stopped in the parking lot by this outraged man. The guy was ranting and letting his anger rage. His face was beet red, he was foaming atthe mouth and his veins were popping out on his forehead. He continued on for about 2 minutes. When he stopped to take a breath, he raised his finger and pointed at me and started yelling at me. I glanced at him and just listened. Keep in mind that this was happening at a busy parking lot at a local grocery store on a Saturday morning. Cars were passing by and slowing down as other drivers were listening to this madman. He was making a scene and he knew it!

The guy wouldn’t stop! He went on and on. I had had enough and said to my friend, “let’s go!” It was apparent this man could not be reasoned with. He was in full road rage. He wanted a verbal fist fight and we didn’t respond in kind. There is a time and place to pick your battles; however it’s never a good idea to try to reason with someone whose intent is to fight and not listen or even compromise. When it gets to that point, it’s best to walk away. Why take the abuse of anyone who does not respect you or themselves? Yet, I see many people in my office who allow this behavior in their relationships at home and work to continue. Why is that?

Is it fear that prevents them from defending themselves? Is it that they want to keep peace in the family or workplace so they say nothing? In my case, it wasn’t my fight; it was my friend’s who cut someone off in a parking lot. He was the one who was dealing with this angry man. I was the observer in a passenger seat. I think common sense tells us when we need to cut and run. There is no need to let someone berate you in public or in the privacy in your own home for that matter!

What are the proper steps to take when being attacked by someone? First, evaluate the situation. If you are being threatened, then leave. If you can get the abuser calmed down enough for a civil conversation, then proceed. There are reasons why people get upset and take their anger out on you. Many are personal reasons like having a bad day at the office, marital issues, and problems at home with their children, health issues, etc. Keep those in mind when someone is lashing out. Try to put yourself in their shoes. It has helped me many times to do just that. Being sensitive to others hurts helps a great deal.

We read stories in the papers about drivers with road rage and usually the outcomes are very deadly. It isn’t always road rage; it can be as simple as someone thinking you cut in front of them while waiting in line. I have seen some people come close to throwing punches while waiting in line for movie tickets. It is much easier to let it go and move on. It’s not worth getting injured or even murdered for standing your ground.

I had a high school teacher who had someone cut him off in traffic in Chicago. When they both stopped at a red light, my teacher got out of his car to confront the other driver. When he got up to the other driver’s window he faced a .357 staring at him in the face. The man asked my high school teacher if there was a problem. “No sir,” he said as” he walked away. Just like my former teacher, back away and be grateful you were not shot or stabbed.

Common sense must prevail in these difficult days. Things have changed over the years. A wise man avoids unnecessary arguments, in fact, he walks away from them. Teach this to your children and your grandchildren. These days anything can happen when confronting someone you don’t know. In closing, choose your arguments carefully. If you don’t need to go there, by all means don’t. Save the pain of getting into trouble.

When is it time to say “No” to your adult children?
Part 5

In the final article of this series, let’s refresh our memory on what needs to be done to encourage our adult children and get them involved in our game plan. Find a time when there is peace in the house then sit down with them and proceed to let them know why you want them to become independent adults and the steps you’re going to take with them to insure their success.

Remember, your game plan is not open for debate. You are informing them that there are new rules while they live in your home and if they don’t like the rules they can move out! Explain to them that the money trail has ended and that mom and dad’s bank has closed its doors. They have to make it on their own and you’ll be there to encourage them every step of the way. You now have set boundaries for yourself and your adult child. Make sure you’re very clear regarding your expectations if they choose to continue living with you. This can include doing their laundry and their cooking. Their bedroom will need to be neat and tidy and they will be expected to clean up after themselves and that you are no longer their housekeeper. They may not be willing to add extra chores like washing your car or cutting the grass but if they are kind and are willing to go the extra mile, then all the better.

You will need to identify the changes you want and explain in detail each item on your list and why you have it listed. You will also need to make sure they understand the consequences if they do not comply. So what are your expectations should your child decide to continue living at home? Here are some general ideas: Will they pay rent? If so, you will need to determine how much and the date it is to be paid. What will be considered shared expenses in running your home and how much will they pay for gas, electricity, water, etc?

Think about household supplies. Will they be responsible for buying their own laundry detergent and dryer sheets? What are you guidelines about having friends over? How will they pay their debts and credit cards? If they are borrowing your car should they be paying for the insurance? Is your ultimate plan to have them move out? If your answer is yes, then determine a reasonable move out date. When they move out, what furniture can they take with them?

These are the kinds of questions you must list before you sit down and meet with your adult child. Let them know that you love them and will encourage them as they make these life changes but you will not do it for them. Make sure they understand you will not co-sign for any loans or leases. Help them understand you will no longer be their personal secretary and you will not be calling to remind them of appointments, when to pay bills, etc.

In closing, be strong, stand your ground, and be firm. Take control of your life. Don’t enable your adult children to use you. Have respect for yourself and help them by helping yourself.

There is so much information I would love to share with you regarding this subject. I simply cannot fit everything into this series of articles! If you have any questions, please give me a call and we can arrange an appointment and talk.

In this series we have examined why adult children take advantage of their parents and have learned how to regain control of your life, peace of mind and finances.

Are you experiencing a difficult time in your home because your adult children are taking advantage of you and your spouse? Do you feel manipulated and hear the same old excuses? “Mom I am so tired I can’t look for a job today” and “I promise to start looking for a job on Monday, you’ll see” or “Dad, it’s not my fault! They will not hire me” and “The economy is bad and nobody is hiring! What’s the use?” If you answered yes to any of these questions, I can help you. Give me a call today!

When is it time to say “No” to your adult children?
Part 3

The first step in correcting the problem of enabling your adult child’s irresponsibility is to admit there is a problem. When you realize your adult child is always asking for money or is always in need and never takes responsibility for his actions then it’s time to step back, look at the problem, and do something about it. You know you want help your kids but you also want to bring sanity back into your life. It’s time to know what your boundaries are and set them. As a parent I understand that we want to protect our kids. We don’t want them to suffer but we need to ask how many of these problems are brought on by their bad choices?

Sometimes we get confused with the words “enabling” and “helping”. There is a big difference you know! Helping is when we reach out and fill a need by affording relief or support to a person under difficulties. Enabling is born out of our instinct of love. However, when we apply it to chronic financial problems that our adult children bring upon themselves, enabling has the opposite effect on what we really intend to do.

I’ve had clients tell me they can’t forgive themselves for things like divorce, abuse, etc. So what do they do? They try to buy their way out of their feelings of guilt! I had a client who divorced her husband and abandoned her children to marry another man. Unfortunately, the man she married wanted nothing to do with her children. Although this happened several years ago she is still trying to buy their love by paying their bills, giving them money and financing expensive trips. Her children never show any gratitude for what she does for them and her friends tell her she’s enabling her sons to be irresponsible young men.

You may ask “Where do I start?” I suggest the first thing you do is make a commitment to yourself to stop the enabling. Tell yourself, “I am no longer going to hurt my child by enabling their irresponsible behavior.” There is absolutely no reason to feel guilty about taking control of your life because what you are ultimately doing is helping your adult child do the things they should be doing for themselves.

When my parents decided to end the madness of enabling my sister they decided to do it immediately and not prolong it. My dad was fed up and couldn’t tolerate what it was doing to my mother. I was proud of them! They enabled my sister for 10 years. Finally, enough was enough! My parents sat down with my sister, shared their concerns and set boundaries on what they were going to do from that moment on. Undoubtedly, my sister was upset and tried to use guilt to manipulate them. Some of her excuses were:  “How dare you tell me I have to get a job. There are no jobs out there!” “Everybody is picking on me and you hate me!” “I don’t have a car! How am I going to apply for work?” “I’m going to live on the streets so don’t worry about me.” Once you set boundaries with your adult child expect to hear all kinds of excuses. Don’t buy into them! This is when you have to be strong. My next suggestion is take some time to really think about the situation and then write down your goals. List all the things that will help you see the whole picture and what you’re ultimately trying to accomplish. This exercise will give you a peace of mind.

In this series we will examine why adult children take advantage of their parents. We’ll talk about how to regain control of your life, peace of mind and finances.

How to tell your adult children NO! By Michael Brooks

I have had clients in the past that felt if they didn’t help their adult children they were bad parents! Hogwash! Don’t buy into that lie! You’re doing your children a big favor by being honest with them by telling them to take care of themselves. I can remember when I first got married I asked my dad to co-sign on a loan for a television. He said “Son, a television is a luxury. Work an extra job to buy one.” That was some of the best advice I ever received. Just as he suggested, I got a part time job and bought a nice TV. I earned it and it bolstered my self-worth as a person. My dad knew how to speak the truth in love and it didn’t cause any permanent damage. He knew how to say no, and I learned when he said no he meant no!

How many times have you been at the grocery store and watched a 5-year-old go ballistic when he didn’t get the cookies he wanted? We’ve also seen the parents give in just to stop the tantrum. If I had acted up in a grocery store when I was a child my parents would have taken me out to the car and would have “taken care of business”. Over the years I’ve had clients tell me that their adult children have acted the same way. They didn’t necessarily throw a tantrum, but when their child didn’t get their way they pouted, used guilt and stopped talking to their parents.

Let’s ask ourselves some questions and be honest in answering them.
• Have you repeatedly loaned your child money and have never been repaid?
• Does your child ask you to buy expensive items for them like cars, clothes, computers, cell phones, etc?
• Have you been paying bills that your child should be paying and taking care of?
• Have you been asked to co-sign for car or house loans?
• Do you have arguments about money and his/her spending habits?
• Are you using your retirement or savings to keep your adult child afloat?
• Are you apprehensive about seeing your child because you know he will be asking for money or that you buy certain things?
• Have you had personal items, collectibles or jewelry seemingly end up missing?
• Is your marriage in trouble because your adult child is taking advantage of you and your spouse?
• Does your adult child get belligerent towards you when you don’t give into their wants and desires? Do they swear and yell at you?

When growing up my parents could answer “yes” to most of the questions listed above. My sister took advantage of my parent’s generosity and kindness. As her brother, I saw through it. They felt bad for some of the choices she made and were always making excuses for her when I confronted them. They would say, “Well, your sister has it pretty hard and she has a drinking problem. If your mom and I don’t help her, who will? We want to help her until she gets back on her feet!” I would tell them that in reality they were not helping her but were actually enabling her bad behavior. She expected our parents to bail her out and ultimately she did not suffer any consequences for her actions.

I asked them how they thought she would ever learn to live on her own if they were always giving her money and paying her rent and most of her living expenses. When I told them I thought she could make it on her own, I got blank stares from my parents!

In this series we will examine why adult children take advantage of their parents. We’ll talk about how to regain control of your life, peace of mind and finances.

When is it time to say “No” to your adult children? By Michael Brooks

“Why does my adult child keep calling me and asking for money? What am I going to do? I can’t afford to keep paying his bills! He thinks I’m his personal banker! I have shelled out well over $57,000 dollars over the past 12 years sending him to college, paying for a European vacation and financing many of his money-making schemes! He has missed several payments on his student and car loans that I co-signed! I can’t do this any longer! My wife and I are spending our retirement funds to keep him afloat. I also know several other parents in the same boat we’re in.” Too many parents these days are taking care of their children when they are well into their 40’s and 50’s and even some in their 60’s. Is there any hope for us?

Believe it or not, many parents across the US are providing money for their adult children who refuse to get a job and want to live off of their parent’s backs. Many children feel they are entitled to their parent’s ongoing financial support so they make little effort to look for work or move out. What incentive do these adult children have to live on their own when we enable this attitude of entitlement? As parents we know that it is our responsibility to raise our children to be responsible adults. What is the age of accountability? Many believe when a child reaches the age of 18 they should be on their own and others say age 21 is appropriate. That is a personal decision for each parent to make. I believe once a child is out of college or trade school they should find a place of their own and start life as a working adult.

What’s wrong with our adult children finding roommates to help with living expenses? Nothing! Many young adults manage their finances on their own and may not need a roommate to help cover expenses; however, some may need to be creative to make the transition from living at home to living an independent life.

As parents we need to prepare our children for life on their own. Are you doing that? Are you helping your younger children with their finances? I recommend you begin teaching your children financial responsibility by the time they are 12 years old. Over the years I’ve had many parents tell me they never sat down with their children and explained how saving and spending works and now regret it. It’s never too late to start! Teach your children the value of earning, saving and spending their money!

To be clear, I’m not saying we should never help our children in a pinch. Adult children need help from time to time. It’s up to you to decide what kind of help they need. If they need money to feed your grandchildren then there’s no question you’ll want to help out. If they’re expecting you to pay their rent, cell phone bills or car payments on a regular basis then I suggest setting boundaries. Adult children need to take full responsibility for their lives. As a parent you don’t need to feel like a failure when you tell them you’re not going to pay for every need and want. How will our children learn to live independently if we are constantly bailing them out of the money mess they get themselves into? What are we teaching them by giving them money or paying their monthly bills?

Let’s face it many adult parents coddle their adult children. I had a friend whose mother pampered him even though he was 38 years old! She constantly doted over him by cooking all of his favorite dishes at just one meal! He seemed slightly embarrassed by it all! This friend had never become an independent adult. His mother did it all for him! I thought to myself how he is in for a real eye opener when his mother stops taking care of him!

In this series we will examine why adult children take advantage of their parents. We’ll talk about how to regain control of your life, peace of mind and finances.

We all have them. Many are hiding in our private closets (minds). Many are attached to past events, people we know, and people we have dated. These are the ghosts that just will not leave us alone! We try to avoid and hide from them as much as possible, yet they linger and show up at the worst times. You could be having a wonderful time visiting with some friends at a party and someone might bring up one of your old flames or something stupid you did. If you’re like me, your face may turn red and you may start looking for an escape route pronto! The damage is done and the memories flood in. Maybe its memories about a person you once dated. You may wonder about what they are doing now or maybe the memory is about the great deal of pain they caused you. You find you’re no longer involved in the social aspects of the dinner party, but rather focused the past. People may think your being distant, but in reality, you’re watching old re-runs of past relationships or events in your mind’s eye. Has that ever happened to you? We all have to figure out ways to deal with these feelings of mixed emotions and hidden ghosts of our past!

A few years ago I hosted a bar-b-que at my home and had invited about 50 guests. I didn’t realize there were some serious conflicts going on between some of my guests until later that evening when I noticed that two of my guests were at odds with each other over the same woman. Both men had dated her, loved her, and wanted to marry her. She was at the party as well and was avoiding both of them. She was dating both of them at the same time and they both knew about each other. I watched this for about two hours and finally one of the men explained the situation and admitted that he was very jealous of the other man. It was amazing to see how they spent the evening talking negatively about each other to anyone who would listen. They would bring up the past mistakes the other one had made, who they dated and how they treated the ex girlfriends. They both had skeletons in the closest and plenty to be embarrassed about.

As the evening progressed I suggested he spend a few minutes talking to her. Although he said that he tried to, she avoided him. He was sure she wouldn’t talk to him because of the skeletons in his closet. He spent his evening standing in the back ground of the BBQ with his hands in his pockets, speaking to no one and just watching her. The person reminding him of the ghosts in his life wasn’t going to go away!

Do you need help with dealing with ghosts in the past? When you find yourself in a situation where the ghosts of your past are being resurrected have a game plan to get out and walk away, whether it’s physically or emotionally. Many people don’t know how to turn off the switch from the past and move on. Avoid any prolonged, random thinking of past hurts.

If you have someone in your life who likes to bring up your past and the pain you have gone through, say to yourself, “I don’t need you in my life”. Letting go of the past is the healthy thing to do. You want to focus on how to avoid painful past experiences. If someone I know starts talking about my past I change the subject. When the timing is right I pull them aside and explain to them they don’t need to bring up old relationships or dumb mistakes I have made. Most people don’t realize that their words are hurtful and will apologize when you let them know how offended you are.

Are you experiencing a difficult time in dealing with ghosts and skeletons in your past and need help in getting rid of them? Are you avoiding talking with certain people who might embarrass you in public? Are you struggling with clearing the air and making things right with certain people? Would you like to learn communication skills that are helpful when talking with people who want to hurt you by bringing up your past? If you answered yes to any of these questions, I can help you.

Why is it some folks feel entitled to do what ever they want? Let’s face it, most celebrities are decent and caring folks. Sure we all have heard the juicy gossip about several of them. I have a friend who has done some serious acting, he’s my best friend, and down to earth. He’s never been in any trouble and is the salt of the earth!

I get confused when actors start living their acting roles in public and don’t deal with realities. I wonder about Charlie sheen. What do his friends think about him? I can tell you, they will never speak out in public about him, but when they talk to each other face to face, that’s a different story. Many are probably distancing themselves from Charlie, and who can blame them. He’s a cancer to any friendship right now.

His crazy radio interviews, his talking to a group of young college baseball players from UCLA about a grain of Coke, doesn’t he understand that most people find that appalling. I wonder why some of his closest friends have not called him out on his behavior in private. Do those friends who claim to love Charlie have an obligation to confront him when he gets off track? They should, and they better. I will tell you, that my friends have my permission to let me know when I am getting out of line. Why? I trust their judgement in numbers!

I don’t think having money or being famous gives you a right to have a “get out of jail free card” for misbehaving. Money may buy you out of a bad situation, but does it help your reputation if you been wrong? No, it doesn’t. I’m tired of Hollywood trying to pass off it’s bad boys and girls to the general public across America as misguided youths. Where is the accountability partners for these people? Where are their parents in all this? Have we become so calloused to the actions of Hollywood stars that we have had our own personal conscious severed? Its looking that way to me.

I’m sorry, that I cannot feel bad for Charlie Sheen and his actions. When I heard his radio rant, I said to myself, CBS better confront this out of control self righteous star. How long will they allow his ranting to continue. We didn’t have to wait long, CBS canceled production of his hit show ‘Two and a Half Men.’ I thought to myself, bravo for CBS taking him on. Now, let’s see if Charlie continues his rage against Hollywood or backs off his attacks on CBS. I think its time if it hasn’t been done already that his dad Martin Sheen needs to sit down and have a talk with his son. He should point out that he is throwing his life and career away and will be blacklisted by the Hollywood crowd and producers.

Some athletes act the same way, they act is if they are entitled and accepted for the bad behavior exhibited before the world of sports. Sorry, when I work with my professional athletes, they have me as their accountability partner. I hold their feet to the fire. If they screw up, we will be having a meeting, “johnny on the spot.” I keep my clients out of the press and they know that. Charlie seems to fly by the seat of his pants, with no accountability whatsoever. Hollywood where are you???

Think about this, do you respect someone who acts out in public? Charlie has been known for his anger, beating up his girlfriends, drinking problems, has been in court several times, and yet..the public seems to adore him for his lifestyle and his bizarre behavior. I just don’t get it. Charlie seems to be like the weird uncle we all had at one time in our lives. He’s the uncle that you can’t introduce to your friends or take in public because he will embarrass you. What causes Charlie to act out in public, is it his drinking problems, drug issues, or some form of mental illness?

So, how can Charlie Sheen deal with his poor self-image and repair it? First of all, accept and admit that he needs help! Stop blaming others for his actions, take responsibility for them. Deal with your problems in the order of severity. Have trusted friends in your corner, not friends who are afraid of you, but will confront you in love. Give your close friends permission to be brutality honest with you. Keep away from those who have a problem with keeping boundaries with, drinking, drugs, sex and anger issues. Be with people that will make you a better person.

Avoid places that will tempt you to harm yourself. Nightclubs, friends homes that have drug users in them. Known prostitutes, drug dealers, porn users. I say stay away from them all, until you can recognize they are not good people and will not help you in your recovery. Let’s face it, we all make mistakes. Big ones, small ones, but we are not perfect by any means. Can Charlie admit he has problems? I wonder if he can. So, what does Charlie do, he takes pot shots at anyone who disagrees with him.

Charlie’s life really depends on those who can help him through this ordeal. His anger issues, along with his drug and drinking problems are not helping him on the world stage. Many are mocking him, and some late night talk show hosts are making him the butt of their jokes!

Charlie, I hope you can get help, I am here for you if you need a life coach! You need someone who can walk you through the process of getting healthy and back on track. You need someone who can and will hold you accountable for your actions. Life is so much better then where you are at now, that I can promise you.

Do you have a difficult time in controlling your bad habits? Have you lost friendships over your bad habits? Do you want to restore any of those friendships? Do you hurt others with your bad behavior and want to stop them? If you answered yes to any of these questions, I can help you plan on how to control these bad habits that have affected your life. I will help you put a working plan together that helps you control bad habits and bad behavior.
