My children are inconvenient is the subject. 11 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:35,040 Speaker 1: Dear Stephen Shirley. I'm fifty one years old. I'm a 12 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,519 Speaker 1: married woman and I've been with my husband for seven years. 13 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: We met at a rap concert while picking up our daughters, 14 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 1: who were both sixteen at the time. He and I 15 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,800 Speaker 1: started talking about how we shouldn't have let our daughters 16 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:51,280 Speaker 1: go on chaperone. My daughter and her friends came out first, 17 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 1: and he got my number before I walked away. We 18 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 1: instantly clicked and he proposed a year. After a year. 19 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: After a year of dating, our daughters didn't know each other, 20 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:05,279 Speaker 1: so they demanded separate bedrooms. As we struggled to blend 21 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:09,040 Speaker 1: our families after marriage, right now. We live with two 22 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,759 Speaker 1: twenty three year old women, and he has a son 23 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: that is nineteen, and he comes and goes as he pleases. 24 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,399 Speaker 1: When he breaks up with this girl, he's back on 25 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 1: our couch for a few weeks. All of our bedrooms, 26 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 1: all of our closets, and two storage rooms have been 27 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: taken over by grown children. My husband and I are 28 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 1: a decent couple, and my man works hard, and so 29 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 1: do I. We brought our children up in the church, 30 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 1: and we made sure they went to college. All three 31 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,479 Speaker 1: of them dropped out. Our girls smoke weed, and I'm 32 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: sure our son does too, but he's just better at 33 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 1: hiding it. The girls smoke in our backyard, and the 34 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: neighbors used to complain, but now they just accept it 35 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: like we do. I talk to my husband about us 36 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: selling our house and downsizing to a condo so these 37 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: freeloaders won't have any space, but he's got a soft 38 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 1: spot for these grown, lazy women. I want to redo 39 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 1: our kitchen and den, but I refuse to make our 40 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 1: home nicer until the freeloaders leave. I don't feel bad 41 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: for them, because they're a major inconvenience. At this point, 42 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: they have no way to take care of themselves if 43 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: we put them out. What can we do to get 44 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 1: these grown ups out of here? Wow, this is a 45 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: really sad letter. Smoking weed in the backyard not working. 46 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: This has got to stop right now. Okay, and downsizing 47 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 1: to a nice condo sounds really nice. And I got 48 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: to ask whereas their mother, She probably doesn't let them 49 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 1: take advantage of her space like you. Guys, You and 50 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: your husband have to present some sort of united front. 51 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: I know you said your husband has a soft spot, 52 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 1: but you all got to get this together so you 53 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: can talk to these entitle, spoiled kids. You got to 54 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 1: let them know things are about to change. The free 55 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: rides over. You got to set a deadline for them 56 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 1: to get it together and get out. Need jobs, they 57 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 1: need apartments so they can get out as soon as possible. 58 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: They should start looking now. You as parents are enabling them. 59 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 1: That's what you're doing. These kids have no incentive to 60 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: get out. They have free meals, free room and board. 61 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: They can smoke weed whenever they want to. You guys, 62 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: don't say anything. I mean, what's their incentive to leave? 63 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 1: I mean, the sun does have a place to live, 64 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 1: so you definitely shouldn't be letting him come and go 65 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 1: as he pleases. I know you love your kids. We 66 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 1: all love our kids, but there does come a time 67 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 1: when we have to let go so they can spread 68 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: their wings and get started on their own path, on 69 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: their own journey. They'll figure it out. They will figure 70 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: it out as we all did, and they'll thank you later. 71 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: All right, but you've got to tell them to get 72 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: out now. Set that deadline and stick to it. You 73 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: and your husband together as a couple, Steve. 74 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 2: All of us only show that have adult children know 75 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 2: what this lets about. And we're sick of this type 76 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 2: of letter. We feel for you, we understand you, we 77 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 2: empathize with you. But at the same time, I've had 78 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 2: to do some things. Now, let me tell you something. 79 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 2: It ain't all these because I'm all through this letter. 80 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,479 Speaker 2: I had blended family all this here, so you know, 81 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 2: here we go. Y'all met at a rap concert. Both 82 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 2: y'all sixteen year old daughters. Was at the concert. Y'all 83 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 2: met waiting on them to come outside. Your daughters came 84 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 2: out first with her friends. You all clicked. He asked 85 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 2: for your number before you walked away. A year later, 86 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 2: you all were married. Your daughters who are both sixteen, 87 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 2: didn't really know each other, so they demanded separate bedrooms. 88 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 2: As we struggled to blend our families after marriage. Blending 89 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 2: the family's not easy, especially the older they get, the 90 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 2: more opinionated they are, and they have personalities, and they 91 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 2: not necessarily would have been friends. They just became family. 92 00:04:58,120 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 2: The thing with family is you don't get to pick 93 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 2: your family. You do get to pick your friends. So 94 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 2: when you throw them into this situation, it is going 95 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 2: to be some difficulties. Right now, after seven years, you 96 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 2: live with two twenty three year old women, and yeah, 97 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 2: as a son that is nineteen, come and go as 98 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 2: he pleases. He break up with his girlfriend, he's back 99 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 2: on our couch for a few weeks. All of our bedrooms, 100 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 2: all of our clauses, two stores rooms have been taking 101 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 2: up our grown children. My husband and I have a 102 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 2: decent couple, and my man works hard and so do I. 103 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 2: It's just so much going wrong in this letter. First 104 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 2: of all, they've been at y'all's house way too long. 105 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 2: Now I'm off of you a solution when we come back, 106 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 2: But let me say this first, we brought our children 107 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 2: up into church. Okay, so much for that so much 108 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 2: for that. I don't even know why you put that 109 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 2: in there. I don't know. I don't know. I don't 110 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 2: know if that was supposed to change something. Because you 111 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 2: bought them up in the church, you can bring them 112 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 2: up in the church, and you can bring them up 113 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 2: in the club when they ain't doing what they supposed 114 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 2: to do. They ain't doing what they supposed to do, 115 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 2: and we made sure they went to college. All three 116 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 2: of them dropped out. Okay, so now you're making adult 117 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 2: decisions on your own, then it is time for adult 118 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:22,239 Speaker 2: consequences when I come back to me. This whole letter 119 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 2: is about consequences and you have to allow and I've 120 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 2: learned this as a parent. You have to allow for 121 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,719 Speaker 2: the consequences to occur. It's the only way they're gonna learn. 122 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 2: And it's not consequences that you inflict. It's consequences that 123 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 2: happen from their decisions. We'll go over this when I 124 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 2: come back. 125 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: Hang on, Steve. We'll have part two of your response 126 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: coming up at twenty three minutes after the hour subject 127 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: my children are inconvenient. We'll get back into it right 128 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: after this. You're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show all right, 129 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: Come on, Steve, let's recap today's strawberry letter. My children 130 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,599 Speaker 1: are in convenient. 131 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 2: Well, well, well, well ain't they all? Sometimes your children 132 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 2: get on your last damn nerve. Oh they don't think 133 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 2: they do, but they do. And guess what the good 134 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 2: news is They children gonna get on they damn nerves 135 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 2: too now and then. So that's how I've been. I'll 136 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 2: be looking at my son with kids nine, he'd be 137 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 2: talking to me. I don't even be listening ahead the time, 138 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 2: don't be listening whatever. Whatever you was that same damn. 139 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: Problem I tried to tell you to me. 140 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 2: So now we got these couple that gotten married. They 141 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 2: have two daughters. At sixteen, they blended a family. They're 142 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 2: having difficulties. The daughters demanded each separate bedrooms. They struggle 143 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 2: with their marriage. You got a nineteen year old boy 144 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 2: that comes and go when he please. If he break 145 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 2: up with his girlfriend, he back on their couch for 146 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 2: a few weeks. All bedrooms and closets and storages take 147 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 2: it up by grown children. And you all all decent couple, 148 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 2: you and your husband. Y'all raised your kids in church, 149 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:13,239 Speaker 2: which whatever, anyway, we made sure they went to college. 150 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 2: Now all three of the kids have decided to drop 151 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 2: out of college. This is where your consequences have to begin. 152 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 2: The one thing I've taught my children is this, the 153 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 2: older you get, the more die of the consequences. See, 154 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 2: you can make the mistakes at a child and then 155 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 2: your parents will help you. But the older you get, 156 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 2: my man, the more die of the consequences. And I'm 157 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 2: not gonna stop the consequences from happening to you. So 158 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 2: once they decided to drop out of college, then guess 159 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 2: what they needed to develop then was a plan of 160 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 2: action since you don't want to go to college, but 161 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 2: they ain't have one, and you all didn't allow them 162 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 2: to have one because you all let them come back 163 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,199 Speaker 2: to the home. Now all three of them there dropped out, 164 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 2: and now they smoking weed. And you sure your son 165 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 2: does too. He just better at hiding it. The girls 166 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 2: smoke weed in y'all's backyard, and the neighbors used to complain, 167 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 2: but now they just accept it, like we do. Really 168 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 2: seem to me, like you need some rules at your house. See, 169 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 2: you can stay here, but these are the rules at 170 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 2: our house. You can't smoke weed in the backyard. It's 171 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 2: no longer acceptable, and if you smoke weed in the backyard, 172 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 2: we're gonna put you out. But they ain't got no consequences, 173 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 2: so they do what they want to do. Now, you 174 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 2: say you've talked to your husband about selling your house 175 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 2: and downsizing so you can get rid of these freeloaders 176 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 2: because they won't have any space. But he got a 177 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 2: soft spot for these grown lazy women. I'm assuming that 178 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 2: you don't. That's why you wrote the letter. You want 179 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 2: to redo your kitchen and den, but you don't want 180 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 2: to make the place nicer until the freeloaders leave. I 181 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 2: don't feel bad for them because they have a major inconvenience. 182 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 2: At this point, they have no way to take care 183 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 2: of themselves. This is where you and I have a problem. 184 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,079 Speaker 2: They have no way to take care of themselves. Well, 185 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 2: that's not true. They do have a way, once they 186 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 2: have to find a way. I'm gonna repeat that, they 187 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 2: do have a way once they have to find a way. 188 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 2: But as Shirley said, you've enabled them, so now they 189 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 2: ain't got to find a way. We're in the backyard 190 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 2: smoking weed. We got a roof over our head, we 191 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 2: got some neat and we can get around. So what 192 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 2: do we need to do anything for if we put 193 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 2: them out, what can they they excuse me, I'm sorry. 194 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 2: We have no way to take They have no way 195 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 2: to get care of themselves if we put them out. 196 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 2: What can we do to get these grown ups out 197 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 2: of here? First of all, you need to set a deadline. 198 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 2: That's for starters. You all have six months to find 199 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:59,439 Speaker 2: a job. Whoever doesn't have a job will be staying 200 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,959 Speaker 2: with the water one that does have a job. But 201 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 2: everybody got six months to find a job. Secondly, you 202 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 2: and your husband stop cooking at home and y'all go 203 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 2: out to dinner. I don't care if it's to go 204 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 2: up to Popeyes, I don't give a damn. If it's 205 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 2: a go get salad that Wendy's a bar salad bar. 206 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 2: I don't give a damn. If it's go to Gym 207 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 2: and Nicks, I don't care what it is. Y'all need 208 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 2: to stop cooking. Starve they ass out. See stop making conveniences. Yeap, 209 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 2: So stop cooking, go out to dinner. Set a deadline, 210 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 2: and then they have to realize consequences. You have to 211 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 2: allow life to hand them what they putting in. See 212 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 2: you get out of life what you put in. So 213 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 2: if you don't allow your kids to suffer consequences, Daddy, 214 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 2: can I borrow some money what you need? And then 215 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 2: they tell me, I'm under no obligation to give you 216 00:11:59,920 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 2: the money. It depends on what's happening in your life. 217 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 2: And I'm telling you right now, for the most part, 218 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 2: I forced them to figure it out. I forced them 219 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 2: to figure it out. And you know what, they go do? 220 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 2: They go and figure it out because you know what 221 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 2: we all did. We all struggle to give our kids 222 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 2: a better life than the one we had. And in 223 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 2: that process, you all, we created a safety net for 224 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 2: them that we didn't have. And so now guess what 225 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 2: they do. They keep diving and laying in the damn 226 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 2: net and that's all they do because they think they 227 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,560 Speaker 2: smart and they take advantage of the safety net. You 228 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 2: have to remove the net. I'm sorry. It's the only 229 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 2: way to make it happen and let them figure it out. 230 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 2: That's the only way to do it. Deadline, you gotta 231 00:12:58,200 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 2: get your ass. 232 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: Out, that's right, Steve.
