Sense my 18yr old has been working for several weeks now,I can honestly say that I am beginning to like him again,,,its only been 4yrs. He does not work with or for his dad. He needs to get out there (class or job) and see that Mom and Dad arent idiots by being with other adults.
I have spent the past 4yrs with some of these same responses and reactions. My other children are amazed that I have not turned into a mushroom cloud.
The change in my son has been so dramatic that I am KICKING myself for not helping it to happen sooner. I dont mind doing his laundry,he still does the trash and suddenly he can actually remember it twice a week. He doesn't grumble when I ask him to do the kitchen once or twice a week either. Im thinking that the kid that has been around here is stuffed in a closet and this is someone else,,I dont care. PEACE at last,for however long it lasts. Im just gonna ride this wave for a bit. |
