Back to Square One?

[Wendylon]

H is not coming up to bed and its 12:30. The annoying thing is that he'll sleep in when he should be looking after S13 tomorrow morning. He's listening to music. S17 came in not long ago from drinking. He was celebrating a friend's 18th. I feel as if H isn't much more mature than S17. I find them both difficult to deal with . They both act as if they'd rather I weren't in their lives and would prefer not to have their actions witnessed by me!

I have a history of telling H that it's late and suggesting he come to bed. I'm not doing it tonight. He doesn't like it and I don't like it so I'm stopping. The alternative though isn't easy either. I feel antsy. I wonder whether I should be calling down and saying "good night". I don't really feel like it though as he wasn't particularly pleasant this evening. I'll leave it for now. At least it means I can fall asleep without the smell of alcohol in the bedroom.
