He makes a "token " monthly contribution, but nowhere near actual cost. Wife and I are comfortable retirees. He volunteers at the wife's church and he's not interested in the military ( my recommendation) in "finding himself "with the possibility of some directions . And he definitely not interested in helping out in the garage. My oldest son feels he too lazy to come and stay with him, just for a short time.
