When she said this, the teenager lashed out .“he would have six months in which he would need to find a job, a place to live and his own transportation to get back and forth from work,” the mom explained.“Our son called us both ‘stupid a**holes’ and told us ‘we don’t understand that he doesn’t want to work like dad'”.Reddit users agreed with the mother on this one.“Your son is on a path to learn some very tough life lessons,” one user said.
