    Honestly that's usually the best approach from our family standpoint. Explain: here is how much it costs you to live here, if you want to be responsible for yourself that means paying rent, car insurance, etc. We will help you and support you but this is the monthly dollar amount. Also please use a condom (and show him all kinds of STD pics - that has scared a few of the kids that lived with us into using responsible protection). And keep trying to remember that their brains are still growing so I usually approach 14-19 year olds like a Golden Retriever. Ball = Reward. Ball = Reward.

    Clearly he helped with garage so got a reward. But then he messed up so you're going to be in that cycle for awhile but if you say "What do you think should happen here" (and if the answer is nonsense counter) usually they will be harder on themselves than you would have been.

    I have 0 desire to take his money, I was just asking an honest question if that was true or not.

    My son is 20 now but at 17 there wasn't a consequence that worked. This is exactly something he would've done. Just the threat of taking snapchat away is enough to motivate my daughters to behave at all times though.

    If it's a joint checking account and you are on it then technically yes you could.

    My punishment idea: make the kid fill out all your MTurk surveys for one week.

    His account has his name on it but it's attached to my account so yes I have control over it, which usually means I get emails when he spends to much money, but I don't deal with those consequences.

    I think most people see it that way. Bro is 6'6 230 lbs and that's definitely the sentiment in our family. He has emotional problems too and is very gullible which also got him in trouble with the law once. If he thinks people are the slightest bit unfriendly at a job, he's gone. I hope you find something you really like and can stick with. Maybe find something very stimulating. One with tasks that change daily? I can't really think of an example right now.
