You have my condolences. Difficult to change now. I hope they at least
learn to take responsibility for themselves as adults.

The older one is a good driver and a 3.8GPA college student, so, I hope so.

Well, at least is applying himself at the academics...where does find
the time in competition with the video games described is curious,
though. I see little chance of changing his behavior around the house
at this point but it would seem that a beginning of requiring some
responsibilities of contributing some to the household given the age and
at college level would be a start towards some of the painful life lessons.

The younger still has some malleable time left, but it's awfully late in
the game...
