you described your "kid" as:
 
>It didn't take long for him to destroy a sofa . . .
>I am not amused by this nor do I find it endearing.  It costs us MONEY to
>replace these things!  We work very hard for the little bit that we have
>and we cannot afford to replace things . . .
>
>. . . He spills anything spillable (is that a word?) . . .
>
>will not be litterbox trained... he goes wherever he damn well pleases...
>that includes the carpet that I have to replace. . . I don't WANT to do
>it anymore.  I am tired of cleaning up after ... I am tired of the stench
>of ... I am tired of babysitting them, I am tired of my things being
>stolen or rendered useless.
