Another indulged adult son, when the parent has no more to give and or refuses to give it's too late for that parent, unfortunately.

As I have stated many times before there will be many more, sadly, the economy is nose diving the elderly barely financially hold on themselves let alone supporting a lazy and entitled unemployed adult child.
