Would you kick your adult child out for this?

So....you knew your debit card had come but you let it sit around somewhere for several days and then got mad at everyone else because you couldn't find it right away. You keep your money in a bank with no provisions for deposit through the ATM, don't have any way to pay your bills except your debit card, and you can't leave on your lunch hour to make a deposit. But it's all your mom's fault. Typical. Since someone else has your debit card it's just as well that you don't have any money in your account. Go buy a money order and send it for your insurance. Most companies have a grace period, anyway, between when it is due and when it gets cancelled. That assumes, of course, that you have been paying for it right along. Close your account and open a new one. Then, since you wander from place to place, get a PO Box for your mail. Since I would have kicked you out months ago, I can't blame your mom for asking you to leave.

I totally understand your statement. But you have a few more things to add. OK? First, you say this card had arrived "the other day." That could be several days ago. Why was this card not in a safe location specially with the history of your brother's irresponsibility. Second, you do not need a debit card to deposit money in the bank. You said you cashed the check. Well, banks accept checks as deposit as well as cash. If the debit card was missing you immediately report it lost to the bank and ask for a new one. Next, car insurance payments are made way ahead of time and have a grace period after the due date. Next, paychecks usually come weekly for a lot of people. Is that your case? May I suggest direct deposit from your employer to your bank? May I suggest a post office box for your mail? It is apparent to me that you wish to be a responsible person. Yet, this card was not under your control the moment you had your hands on it. It goes in your wallet, in your purse, and if need be, under lock and key. You seem to lay down all sorts of blame on others. While this may sound convenient for the moment there are steps to take for protection of your property, wallet and other documents that are valuable. OK? So, I have to assume you cannot afford to live on your own and find youself in a pickle. I hope you find a solution. It might be the best move you have made so far in your young life. Wake up and smell the coffee. You are now basically without a home and on your own. Best of luck.

Sounds like you're a mature adult who pays there bills. Why are you still living at home in the first place? And yes, I understand you being upset, but it sounds like you are being rather disrespectful, especially after airing out your relationship on Yahoo Answers. I suspect there is more to her asking you to leave than just this one instance.

Seems like you'd be better off away from them anyway lol.

iyou can take legal action for that. its not you fault at all. don't play her game her way.

Though cussing at your mom isn't acceptable, I wouldn't kick my child out for that reason. Seems kind of petty to me. I do have to say though, if you knew your card had come in the mail a few days before this incident, you should have grabbed it right then instead of waiting. Just talk to her, apologize for cussing at her & explain in a mature way why you were upset. It may help. Good luck to you!
