This was my 5th year art teacher Eileen gartside, she was an amazing teacher, she had a step daughter who she spent most of her time with on things to do with the carnival like making her carnival queen, she was a bonny young girl I think called melanie and younger brother Alan, I miss mrs Gartside and her personality she was quite strict but funny, graham was a bit of a loner at school used to carry a briefcase around and was bullied quite a lot, he lives in the same town as me now in fact next door to my mother in law, it's a small world, Mrs Gartside has unfortunately passed away but she will be sadly missed by many and Graham lives with his boyfriend now

While I agree with you on many levels, parents who pay money monthly to their kids are not necessarily bankrupting the kids morals or taking away their sense of responsibility. The problem with the way Graham's parents give him money is it seems they do so to replace love, time and other family issues with money. They don't ask him to work or even to volunteer and just throw money at the situation without asking anything of him. My parents have been paying me a pretty nice sum of money for the last 25 years. HOWEVER, I do research for my family, and that includes for cousins and other branches of the family and its business. I'm also the family historian and photo archivist. I am expected to show them a budget , take classes on stocks, bonds and other wealth management issues, and volunteer. Unlike this guy, I could care less about impressing the neighbors and my best friend, who also has quite a decent bank amount, and I LOVE to try and get good deals like going to second hand stores, coupons and more. Sure, we go to University Club and other more elegant places once in a while, but we are just as happy at the Diner down the street or the little hole in the wall coffee shop. We also both have pretty good morals and don't do drugs, steal, hurt others or the like. So, just wanted to say that not all folks are as purposefully obtuse as this kids was in the beginning of the film. Peace!!! Thanks for sharing your observations!

I think he's made dramatic changes, good for him. He obviously cares about his mum and its lovely to see their relationship changing for the better.

Personally, I like this guy. He has a lot of positive things about him. And I believe he is a good friend and person which needs to stay away of some ‘users’ / fake friends who are enjoying spending his money (his mom’s money) .

He was so terribly unlikable at the beginning, but he was so open minded and easy about accepting help and changing his ways!!! I would not have guessed!!! Good for him and his mother...they just needed some help and some guidance...neither of them were too egotistical or stupid to accept help...I hope they are happy and well today!!!

The mother could stop this. I don't have any sympathy for her because she allows it to happen.

I'm very proud of Graham! His spending problem started with something that was totally out of his control when a young teen and just became a familiar cycle until the experts pointed it out and helped the cycle to stop. Graham was very positive through out the difficult process and seems so grown up now. I'm very, very impressed! And, I loved the shirt he designed! He has a bright future!

I'm now quite addicted to this series. What's interesting is how different people's faces look at the end of the process. Graham looks so much happier and softer -- less stressed, but I'm sure he's working much more. Well done, Graham!

The best part about Graham is how he admitted to his problems, is willing to change, and then stuck to that commitment! Yes, he was on the wrong path, but he listened to criticism and was eager to listen to solutions and find his own to get him onto the right path. Hopefully, he and his mom were able to continue to work on their emotional issues and relationship. They both seemed to have some great breakthroughs when they understood what behaviours were creating the problem. Wishing them all the best. :)

I'm always so proud of the people in this series. And this one in particular. He was so open minded and willing. And it's obvious that his childhood stuff was the real cause of the breakdown with his mother which was just exacerbated by her enabling him instead of fixing that breakdown. He literally had all the card stacked against him. How many people would just keep spending their parents money if their parents just kept giving it go them and they didn't have a great relationship or level of respect for their parent. I think most people would, in that situation, take advantage. So I'm very impressed that he's made a change. And especially because he wanted to. His mom didn't put him on the show. He willingly participated. And he put in the work, literally, by actually working. Good on him.

I'm so proud of him for turning it around. So often we try to fill these depths within us with material things when we just need to do the work emotionally. No amount of money can make up for being present with your child.

Satin Perfume that’s not even the worst of it. When he was 13, mum had a boyfriend who didn’t like him and instead of leaving the boyfriend, she paid the kid off so he’d put up with it.

Yes. His mom is an enabler. I have zero sympathy for her.

He has finally grown up. Good for him. And, his mother.

So glad that he actually made the changes! Well done to him!

He’d be close to buying a car if he saved a years worth of taxi money

In his case I agree. But don't judge us all the same. I have mobikity problems and can't get to the end of the block without panicking that i'm going to fall. So taxis are the only option for me.But I pay for my own transport. This man should not be taking his mum's money. She needs to stop him bullying her (bullying can be verbal as well as physical.) And not finance him. I think he has a mental problem her. I hope he can change.

Thing is he stays close to the big city. 10 minutes walk is a good way to move around and it's good exercise. Unlike some places there are highways so there's no choice u need a vehicle to move around.

I really enjoyed this episode and watched it from start to finish. And, i think Graeme should be damn proud of himself - he took on the challenge and did amazing! Good on you : )

I was cross with him until I realised he's making an effort to change.

I wish him all the best. He will find his way & become independent. Someone had to open his eyes. Better now than later. Hope he can form a more personal bond with his family that doesn't include money from Mum whenever he wants it. My ex-husband is a shop- aholic. It's what broke us up. I am currently in bankruptcy dealing with the aftermath. Good luck to Graham, he can change his ways with the right emotional support.

He’s so sweet. He seems like a good person. You’re strong and you can do this! Just keep going and believe in yourself. Know that you’ll lose friends but, continue to communicate with your mother. She loves you more than life itself. Good luck to you ❤️😘🎂🧁

“This is the first time Graham has been on a bus in broad daylight” 😂 😆 I love a good bargain

The first ten minutes I thought What a Tool... But watching it to the end I changed my mind... He's a nice, kind, generous, thoughtful young man who tried his hardest to make this work and it did change his ways. The psychology behind it all was very interesting... And thank goodness mother and son faced up to it and resolved things. I wish him all the best, he came across as lovely in the end.

Really loving the way the therapist handled this! Just an amazing job at getting to the problem and calmly addressing both Mom and Son to come to see the light. Such a delicate touch you have! May you never lose that skill!

Benjamin and Jay. You are two wonderful people. Your understanding and compassion shine through the frustrations and challenges. What an inspiration for me. Thank you. I have learned a lot by watching these programmes.

As I read the nasty comments I am realizing those making the comments didn't finish watching it. How people feel entitled to comment without watching the entire episode is deplorable. Before any of us comment on any topic you should have enough sense to gather as many facts as you can....in this case, watch the ENTIRE segment.

Great people, i loved their attitude and willingness to change and improve. This is a great episode!

This was very touching indeed. This was amazing. Neither is really to blame, and glad they got out of that particular mess in one piece! Brilliant and widely relevant to other people I think. Graham wants love. We all do.

I really thought I was going to hate him but seeing how dedicated he is to change and how nice he seems, he's pretty cool!

They certainly don't look good

She seems to enjoy having him still on the teet. She's an adult, not a victim.

My mom give my 2 younger siblings a monthly allowance but she puts them to work. My sister does secretarial jobs for my mom, monitor my parent's health and liase with their doctors. My brother on the other hand is their full time driver on spring break and helps with the family business. My mom pay them by the hour. No work, no pay just like in the real world.

God I feel so sorry for him. At the start of this he just came across as spoiled and selfish, but it became clear that his adolescence was extremely difficult. His mother as much as said that her ex-partner hated her son for being gay. What an awful thing for a teenager to have gone through. I know this was filmed a long time ago but I'm so glad that he got help.

I feel sorry for him. He is trying to replace things for love and attention that he did not get from his mom.

It’s so nice to watch his progress through the weeks. He seems lovely & willing to change, just that he didn’t really have a clue how to before. Most of the comments in this section seems to have been made without actually watching the whole thing, which is incredibly annoying & shows that people are only interested in being mean.

It’s a nervous laugh. People tend to show various stress indicators when you’re unpacking their deepest flaws, insecurity, and entire life on national (at the time) broadcast. If it was malicious laughter, there’d be a lot less openness, progress, and actual change. He would’ve continued to sabotage his mom, and in a plethora of other ways, besides financially.

This was very insightful from the therapists point of view

What an amazing Lad Graham is. He turned his life around for the better and has made Mum proud. Good luck and God bless.

What a great video. I very much enjoyed Graham's honesty and willingness to change. Life is so much better when you pay for yourself with money you've earned. I am very happy for Graham and his mom.
