He might have stated it as a question. I can't remember that specifically.

You'll have to go back and look at the exact post. Mine wasn't an exact quote.

No, his mother does not have to accept, approve of, or jump for joy over any relationship her son has, but she does not have the right to demand that he sleep at her house, visit for her desired amount of time, or even that he visit at all.

She is the one who came here complaining that she does not get to see her son enough and asking for solutions. He is respecting her wishes by sleeping elsewhere and driving 3 hours round trip to visit her. She is the one that is not happy with that and wants more.

And I didn't plagiarize anything...I provided a definition.
You can provide any definition you want, unfortunately your definition does not fit the situation.

They may be choosing the option they like the best but it certainly is not the best option for them or anybody else. Choosing fornication over righteousness is NEVER better for those that are doing it. It will have consequences.

As has been pointed out several times, the son wants to literally sleep in the same bed with his GF. Most here agree that they probably wouldn't have sex in the parent's house anyway.

IMO it does. Again you're entitled to yours as I am to mine.

I have a feeling this is more about mom's complete and utter lack of approval for his life choices and less about where they sleep for 2 nights. I bet mom makes sure he knows how much she disapproves, not just in her own house, but in their own, too. He probably just wants to be respected as an adult.

Again they are being selfish. I would never expect someone to sacrifice their morals or beliefs just to accommodate me.

So its okay for the son to sacrifice, but not okay for the mom to sacrifice? Mom wants the son to stay, so IMO she should be the one to make the sacrifices
