That situation reminds me of my grandmother on my step dad's side of the
family. 50 year old man-child living with his 93 old mother. He was the
same, ordered her around to the beer store, gave her no respect, and
took everything for granted, stuff like that. In the end when she was
gone he couldn't do anything for himself. It's sad.
Our mother's are precious, they brought us in to this world, and they
give us unconditional love regardless of whatever screw-ups we get in to
along the way.
Call your mothers tonight and remind them how special they are.
I don't know your faith Jay, but certainly praying about it would help
the situation with your customer's son. Other then that getting involved
could cause more problems then there already is.

The guy where I went to that service call yesterday treats his mom like
a piece of crap. I had told Sandie that I really didn't want to go
because of the way he treats her makes me want to get up and bust a few
teeth out of his head. (I have been there before) She said to just
ignore him. He got to yelling at her while I was there and called her a
"stupid f**king b*tch". I almost lost it. She is 70 years old and he is
46. He has never lived anywhere but home, has no job, and to my
knowledge hasn't drawn a sober breath in over 25 years! When I went
back, he was gone and I apologized to her for him treating her that way.
She started crying and said that he is mean to her. I need some input
guys. Is there anything I could do or anyone I can contact about this,
or should I just stay out of it? It really upset me because my mom is
dead now. I just wish I had a few hours that I could still talk to her
and tell her I loved her. Then to have to watch and listen to this kind
of crap.
