Badad:
Iv been on fish oil for many years. I was taking 4000 mg Omega mood (high epa)by country life but ran out and am taking now foods omega 3 now. I need to order more soon and its the best time to ship it now in cold weather. I ask my family take it also but they dont always unless I remind them. Grass feed beef from my dads farm. Organic eggs from my buddies farm. Real whole grain bread and pasta. But the fruits and veggies could be more. I ride my bike rain or snow to work so I dont drive or do the shopping and its tough getting the good foods.
I dont mind working on toilets. I like to, no, love to work with my hands. Keeps me in shape. But it doesn't pay well. Cutting and splitting my firewood in the fall is one of my most favorite things to do with my dad. But my kids hate it. They would rather play video games all day. I cut , split and stack a seasons worth of fire wood and its like pulling teeth to get them to bring it inside as we burn it.
I will remember what most of you said and work harder on my self esteem. I wish my family would say what you people have said.

I think you know why.
If its arbitrary, its bullshit... if its meaningful (like picking up shit that is dangerous, frail, or valuable, or removing old clothes and food for sanitation) then they'll learn it and practice it.
MY room is messy and I'd hit you in the face with a dowel rod if you touched my shit, but it doesn't stink!

I agree....pick your battles. If he's as out of control as you make him sound and what, 14 or so years old, I would focus on the other things. You may want to try getting him to talk about what he is so angry about. Why does he get mad? What does he want out of you and your wife? Start a dialogue and dont focus on the small things like cleaning his room. It's probably too late for that.
