Don't. There will come a day when you can say - "And what have I been talking about all these years? Now maybe you'll listen!" And they probably will.

Nay, by that point it will be into SHTF and they will only show up here for what comfort/stores they can get for free and then bitch about the TV not working or food they "don't like" and whine about no Mat-Doooonalds!

While I won't turn them away they will become useful in some aspect to help out in those times.

And they will still complain.

He was reading "Diary of a Wimpy Kid- Dog Days" while ignoring Me at the time.

This was after I made Pancakes/Bacon/Milk & OJ for Breakfast AND delivered it in front of him to hear...

"I want cereal"

I gave him the Polish Silent Treatment.

He just plain don't give a $&!T
