My boy was an adult and was still behaving like a child. We gave him a year off after yr12 (that's not unreasonable) , but 3 years of not showing any sign of doing anything worthwhile was too much.

Once he turned 18yo we could have given him his marching orders, no longer our responsibility.
Geez, one of my daughters is 19. She has many issues and basically doesn't do much. I hope she changes and sees the world for what it is. Still she is 19 and as you say an adult so, when should i turf her out?
