Ok so every one is going to get mad at me but here goes.
1st he did know and should have done it sooner.
2nd I wouldn't pay for it (if girlfreind wants to go she could pay for it)
3rd not paying for it and girl freind getting mad may wake him up! 4th she should take a good look at him and his habits.
5th you do not die by not going I didn't cuz Tim couldn't afford to take me so we did something cheep (I'm still alive.) ( He was working but was out of school and had an apartment and car payments )
My opinion sorry if people disagree, but I fell by not making him take the consicences of his actions or inaction in this case he's not learning about life. It's about choices and the result of those choices . My kids are learning this lession right now as both have gotten in to a bind and I am not bailing them out. They are learning to THINK before acting.
