Last nite my youngest son called me in panic. He could not rent a car, the rental agency would only take credit cards - he has none. The other locations always took his debit card. They did not inform him until pick up. I will have to say that before calling me he tried all other ways of renting a car.

He begged me and I said I would rent the car for him. ugh Could not hold up under the pressure and did not want to suffer the consequences if I had held my ground. He knows the system extremely well and knows how far to go in behavior that would totally embarrass me and possibly lose my job or home but not enough to get him arrested. I know they are bullying me but I see no other way. Been to the professionals, police, social services and no help for me.

Without the rental car he would have lost all of his deposits which amounted to >$300.

ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh
