Re: shock to the system!!
I'm gobsmacked!!
my point was really that the poor kid has no real life skills, and sees no point in learning any, because as far as he is concerned he pays someone else to do everything for him!
so sad, and as I said before, what if his world falls apart, and he one day has to fend for himself??!
he also seems unable to make choices for himself..
I put a choice of cereal, jam, fruit etc. on the table for breakfast - he doesn't know where to start
I put out a choice of stuff for them to help themselves to for a snack at school........again, he has a problem choosing
I always ask the kids what their favourite food is, so that I can cook it at least once during their stay.......he said he has no idea what he would like, because the maid just puts food in front of him every night
his clothes in the wardrobe are sorted into 'outfits' - shame really cos usually the boys live in board shorts & t shirts!
