I am new and I have only read a few posts, not only did tears come to my eyes, but a sense of relief. I want to vent a bit about my son, and I feel I will be understood here...not judged.
I am having a horrible time with my son, and I think you guys will understand...I can't stand him! I am sick and tired of being treated like sh*t by a 13 year old. He thinks he can run my house, talk to me like I am dirt, lie to my face, and make his own rules...not to mention punch holes in his bedroom wall when he doesn't get his way, and worse yet, find a way that is all my fault. I gave him a consequence for getting kicked out of school, so its my fault he can't go to a friends house....I have not met many other people who can stand him, he is very self-centered, and only does things that he will benefit from in the end. If he is nice....there is something in for him.
I love him dearly, but I am sick and tired of going to bat for him, only to be made to look like a fool in the end. I am at the end of my rope, I cringe if he touches me and find it difficult to be nice to him after I am abused by him...he wants to just say sorry and have it all go away. I try but I can't continue...I am ashamed to say, he knows I don't like him. I have explained to him that I will always love him as my son, but every "bitch, fuck-you, and go to hell" that come from his mouth pushes me further and further away, I think our relationship is damaged beyond repair. I know I am all he has, but I am about done giving and I see no changes in the near future!!! Have any of you experienced this? If so help!!! I would nothing more than to feel the unconditional love for him that I used to!!!
