Myself and OH are feeling quite annoyed at our adult son(45) he bought a small house near us last year (on his own) and we help out with the overgrown gardening and decorating which we are happy to do. We have helped out with money for stuff as well, again we are happy to do this - he thanks us as well.
He suffers from depression and is on medication and he works. However he can be very snappy at times. If OH asks him to pick up something for the decorating on his way home he will often pick up the wrong thing because he can’t be bothered. OH was painting some doors yesterday after preparing them and when he left at 6pm said he will be back today to hopefully finish off before his kitchen is fitted in a weeks time.
This morning my OH got a text message saying “don’t come over till 1pm” OH replied no, I’m want to start earlier to finish. Son replied someone is here, so OH replied Ok, have to leave it then. Another message came, ok come over at 11am.
You’ve guessed it - OH used his key and son came downstairs and said “oh come back later” OH turned around and left and said Pzzz off!
Oh now saying Ive had enough, he can get on with it himself now. I understand how he feels and do think son is out of order.
Any thoughts ladies?
