I Am Done Paying For My Girlfriend's Ent*tled Adult Kids Who Destroyed My Home
The original poster (OP) has been in a relationship for 18 months with his girlfriend, Lita. The core conflict stems from OP's financial and material support for Lita's two adult children, a 25-year-old son and a 28-year-old daughter.
Both adult children are unemployed and rely on government a*sistance and financial contributions from OP, totaling about $1,000 per month.
The situation is aggravated by the daughter's frequent stays with her own two young children in OP's fifth wheel trailer. This has resulted in significant damage and uncleanliness, leading to an estimated $30,000 loss in the trailer's value.
OP's attempts to get Lita to address this cleaning issue have failed. OP is now questioning his anger about constantly supporting two grown adults while trying to enjoy his life with Lita.

OP is clearly in a difficult position, feeling frustrated because his desire for financial independence and a peaceful life clashes directly with his girlfriend's commitment to supporting her adult children without accountability.
The ongoing financial strain and the physical damage to his property are causing significant stress in the 18-month relationship.
The central debate is whether OP is wrong to demand an end to supporting two capable, yet dependent, adults when it severely impacts his resources and living situation.
Readers must weigh OP's right to protect his a*sets and finances against Lita's desire to provide unconditional support for her children.
