If he isn't sending payment on time i believe YOU MUST discuss this with him. He is old enough to be responsible for his debts. Don't let him take advantage of you [Eek!] ! That isn't right!!!

I have a 16 yr. old you recently got his first car (About a month ago). When we went to register, I paid with a check, but he already gave me the $ back. See, he knew if he wanted a car he needed to have the $ upfront, so he worked for it.

I also signed for him to get a wireless phone, but he paid me back too! And he's only working a few hrs. after school.

Now, he knows, if he doesn't save his $ to pay his telephone bill, he will simply not be able to use it- I am not gonna be paying for him if he doesn't do his part!

Talk to your son and demand responsibility. He's an adult!
