He pretty much lived here all summer, but he commuted 60 miles to a shit job in MD. He's a good kid, but his mom is a little fucked up in the head. She'll throw him out of the house and has a key-lock on his door. He can't even get in to get his work clothes. That's just not right. He's a potential son-in-law and has a key. I have to discuss it with my wife (daughter just suggested it this morning), but I doubt she'll mind. He's a big help around the house.
