My son drop his Motorola Razor in the pool. I’ve trying drying it out, cleaning with alcohol and just bought a new battery and still nothing. The outside charge indicator light comes on when plugged to charge and at times the key/number area will light up but nothing more. Any ideas I can try?

My nephew is 21 and won’t look for a job. When his mother tells him to, he makes her life hell. His father left to live with someone else and is no help. In fact he is the reason why he is worthless. His father’s father was a worthless alcoholic who only worked occasionally. And ended being taken care of by the mother until he died. In fact all of the uncles from that side of the family are or were worthless. The father was abusive and always relied on his mother or my parents to help him and my sister out of being in trouble. He smokes pot all the time so you know that the kids do to. My sister is so neurotic from being in an abusive relationship for 26 years that she can’t or won’t do anything about this now abusive self proclaimed drug addict. She can’t throw him out because she is afraid that he will do something bad to himself. Also he won’t go anyway. Plus he starts trashing everything in the house and then leaves before the cops show up. And even when they do show up, there is nothing that they will do. Plus I don’t think that my sister will really follow therough with anything either.I told my mother that I need to sit that little bastard down and talk to him man to man. But she says don’t rock the boat. All I want to tell him is that it is time to be a man and get a job and start contributing. But the women (my mom and my sister) say all that will do is make things worse. I tell them that I will not be his victim like they are. But sinse I take care of my mother now, one way or the other, I am now. I say that it is time for a man to deal with this and set things straight no matter what anyone thinks. Especially since its my life and my mother’s life that is also being effected here. Sooner or later they will probably end up moving in with me and I won’t have that crap in my house. He says that he is addicted to pot so he can’t work. And he won’t get help. I say that its just an excuse and its time to tell him how it is. But if I do then all hell will break loose. I say let it break. Let him go and experiance the real America. Has anyone else had to put up with this garbage? There was a time when get the hell out! used to work. Now the women say don’t rock the boat and now I’m the bad guy. Sooner or later there comes a time when a man has to step in and clean house. What say you????
He is 35 an alcoholic with high blood presssure. He claims his problem is the blood pressure meds. He got some cialis. Fisrt time he took it, he then when to the store and over to his dads to visit. Hours later he showed back up at home. It was a bust. I think it is his alcoholism and not having a desire for my daughter what do you think? I’ve read the desire has to be there before anything else will happen.
Last week me and my family was staying in a hotel and my son (natural curiosity) automatically touched and picked up everything in the mini bar. Then after reading a note by the fridge i saw that there was a weight system or something and we would be charged even if we just picked it up.
That true?
Also, my teenage daughter will be staying in a hotel room with her friends next week for a hockey tournament, there will be parents in the room next to them, but would she be able to get the alcohol from the mini bar?
Thanks
18 months ago a colleague of mine had her drivers license suspended due to parking tickets (and I suspect a possible DUI); I offered to take her and her son to/from school and work thinking it would be temporary. Now, the situation continues. I know her drivers license has been reinstated, her car is drivable, yet she continues to ride with me without any explanation of when she will resume her past driving responsibilities. I happen to know her salary because I do the books at work. I know what she receives in child support and how much her rent is. She has sufficient funds to live on; she is addicted to alcohol & drugs and spends a lot of her $$ on her habits. I am now feeling like I am being taken advantage of. She cries “poor mouth” yet leaves her son with her ex when it suits her so she can indulge her vices. Her Mother also works with us and the situation is complex. What to do? I don’t want to be an enabler but I feel bad for her 4 year old child. Any suggestions?
Back in April, he started calling in sick quite frequently and I noticed he has been doing cocaine, I have found two bags of cocaine in my bedroom, he has never paid me anything for his half of the rent or utilities and he thinks it is fair that I pay for everything. He is making my son and I very uncomfortable, i want to kick him out but I am scared, I am trying to find the right words, can you give me advice?
Just wondering what they look for when determing custody issues. He hasn’t work in 2 1/2 years. He has 2 dui’s, 3 hit & runs. He is a alcoholic. He also lives with his mom and sister in a one bedroom apt. His twin bed is in the kitchen/eating area of the apt. There is no bed for my son to sleep in. I have provided for me and my son since he was born. He barely visits with his dad. I want him to have a relationship, but I don’t ever feel safe leaving him with his dad alone. Most of my sons visits with his dad were including either his grandma and/or aunty. He has filed for joint legal & joint physical of my son. He can’t care himself, let alone a 19 month old child.
I opened a child support case and a week before we had to go to court he filed for joint custody.
He does not have a drivers license, we have established paternity. What if I can’t afford a lawyer?? I know he is representing himself.
We were never married.
I live on my own with our son. He has always lived with.

My brother is almost 50 years old and an alcoholic. He has had numerous DWI’s and no longer owns a driver’s license, but owns 4 cars which are parked in front of my parent’s house where he lives in the back garage with his wife.They do not pay rent or bills. He doesn’t drive any of his vehicles, he only changes the tires out when they rot. They have lived there for about 18 years now and I don’t think they have any intention of leaving. To make matters worse, during his marriage, he got another woman pregnant and my parents raised his daughter(by this time she was 4), while he told his wife it was our deceased brother’s daughter. She is 17 years old now and completely feels regected by him. He comes into my parent’s house and doesn’t say a word to anyone. He has the ability to make something of himself but he just chooses not to. They completely take advantage of my mother. But my mother allows it. She just says she can’t bring herself to put her own son out on the street.
30 year old son did not graduate and unable to get a job. Anti-social behaviors. Talks to himself. Has no friends. Will not see a doctor. Thinks he is normal. Dad pays for everything such as food, cigarettes, gas, insurance, phone, etc. because he does not want to “kick him to the street.” Even sold his house to get him out on his own, but he bought another house and then paid one year for son to have own apartment. Son agreed to get a job, but nobody will hire him. Dad is frustrated and does not enjoy living with Son in the home. Does not know where to turn for advice. Ex-wife had him once, but she had him leave, so Dad took him in again. Any suggestions how to treat this problem? Oh, Son does everything in excess. Smokes too much, drinks too much (when he gets alcohol), plays video games and watches cartoons too much, etc. I am friends with the Dad for ten years and this Son is destroying our relationship. Any advice (serious, please) would be appreciated. Thank you
my son was put on 3 yrs probation, for robbery w/his cousin. now he do smoke weed, which i can say doesn’t bother me, i don’t but i’m ok w/it he’s a grown man.. ok he was goin to report regulary like he was suppose to and she would always down him on how she could lock him up and he found a job @ this chicken coop but it was 10 miles outside the city limits, she denied em travel for it, so he continued lookin and of course living in CLOVIS NEW MEXICO, w/that type of rap sheet he can’t get one. but my point is he stop reporting, he gave two dirty U.A’s first one was intake. so he got caught and can’t get out til they find him a bed in rehab. she was caught doing METH, but by turning herself into a rehab(which didn’t help) she can continue to work for the probation and parole office, not to mention, she has giving so many of her probationers breaks on the same situation(dirty ua’s and absconding) so why is it so hard on my son??
allan & john, yes all of it is @ fault from him to her, but y should he look bad and not her, they both drug users, only diffrence is she WORKS
for Law Enforcement, so who’s really wrong. i jus want’d to know is that fair, not for no one to put my child down, we’ve all made misstakes (ALL)!!!
my stepson’s mom is ok letting her 15, almost 16 yr old son work at Keller’s Hamburger’s off Northwest Highway. He wrkd there last yr, while we hated it and think it is completely wrong. She and her mom wrk there and are there with him, but he still gets to handle empty beer bottles and even be around all the drunks that hang out there. I think it is illegal.
hi 
i`m going into 8th grade this september,
i`m 13, and i was wondering a few questions
for people who have expierenced taking care of a baby think it over doll
1. do you get stuck w/ the ethnicity& gender your teacher gives you, or do you get to pick the ethnicity and the gender of the realcare doll ?
2. do you get to name your doll?
3. what do you get w/ doll, like clothes, etc, ?
4. how long do you get to care for the baby, or does that depend on the school, ex: 3 days, 1 week, etc ?
5. do you get to choose the drug addicted baby/ alcohol diseased baby, or not?
6. how long are they, and how much do they weigh?
7. are they plastic, and do they move, or what?

over a year ago i adopted now a 5 year old boy. His mother is a addicted to crack and when she was pregnant she smoked crack too. Since he was younger he was in foster care. While in foster care he attended special education preschool. Now that i have him he is attending regular kindergarten since there is no special education kindergarten offered.
He’s been going to kindergarten(school) for past 3 months, but he is not getting any work done and does not focus on his work. His teacher told me that my son is not focusing and is always last one in class to finish his work, if he even finishes.At home he dose the same thing whether he is putting his close on or eating or doing his homework, always he takes way to long and cant sit still. I have been talking and trying anything just to get him to do what he is supposed to do but IT’S NOT WORKING.
MOST LIKELY HE IS ADHD. I need some concrete advice on what and how much can i expect form him regarding his school work/home chores and regular routines and how much can he accomplish. In other words what would be reasonable to ask him to do.
I am desperate and in need of some wisdom from you out there how do i get him to focus and do what he is supposed to. PLEASE HELP!!!
My mum is 58 and she is completely stressed out from working online and taking care of two kids. The girls she works with a b!tchy and they hassel her too much. And my mum is raising my two nephews because my sister is a drug addict living on the streets escorting men. So my mum has to care of them I help her of course but the girls she works with make her feel like crap all the time.
