yeah but why pay for it.

 

Correct... I am looking for a solution where I don't have to shell out $$$ to fix it. I have spent it already. Free rent, meals, etc... some respect please. That's all I'm asking.

 

refuse to pay for internet if he is the one using it all the time

 

Cut the wire to that phone jack.

 

you're letting him stay in your house... thats doing your family duty. Making him get the fak off the line isn't being impatient or unhelpful, its just common sense. He's your guest and he should be courteous.

 

Dude...5 months? Thats a lot of time.

I completely understand what family have to do for each other...but theres the line where hes crossed and is just taking advantage of the free ride. He needs to get his ass back out and take care of his own shit.

 

there is no 'family friendly way' to get rid of a mooch. mooches come from all backgrounds. u will have to develop a backbone and get him out. give him a one month deadline to find a place to live. when that day comes if he hasnt moved then get a truck and do it yourself. any family member that judges u can have him. wont be any takers.. just accept the fact that they will say unkind things to u. your self esteem and self worth isnt dependent upon their approval.

a mooch loves to create such conflict. keeps them comfortable. being nice to him feeds this behavior. as long as there is blame and finger pointing he isnt going anywhere. he is ignoring what his behavior is doing to u and your family. a mooch goes beyond family obligation. u r not obligated to have him stay with u with no rules.

its disrespectful of your uncle to treat u like this. u have a predictor now of his behavior. he has repeated it for 5 months. unless u plan on having him till he is in the grave, shake things up and get him out of his comfort zone. he will go kicking and screaming and u both will be just fine. his life, he is responsible for it.

 

Prior to his stay... I had internet; broadband to be accurate. The dial-up is his. For some odd reason, he paid in advance 2 years for a deal... he claims.

I thought of that but the wife thought it was too harsh. He's not a teen although acts like one. A 45+ old teen who brings in strangers at times... not very polite people... going through my fridge for food and touching my stuff. Not good. The wife and I have to lock our bedroom and only keep enough food stored in the fridge.

I've told him serval times already. If he needs to be online that long to just connect onto my wireless network... I gave him my WPA key and even offered the use of my desktop that sits only 4 feet away from his. Still no dice. He wants to be able to load his crappy programs on my system... and I just simply do not have the time nor patients to reload the os every week due to his questenable habits.

You know, divorce is a bitch. Especially if kids are involved but I don't understand how the legal system worked in the wife's favor. She cheated on him for over 2 years... and yet he has to pay child support for his 4 kids and pay for a place for them to live at? Go figure... She even went as far as stating to the judge that he threated to beat her... which the judge believe. Odd, justice system. The stupid bitch should get off her ass and work. Even to date, she sits at home and waits for his child support money.

I feel for him but I'm beggining to VERY dislike him also.

 

Change the locks on your door and if you have a police friend have them stand by the door and say "sorry this area is under quarantine from moochers"
