frustrated

I have been very angry lately. So I have been reading my bible and trying to practice relaxation techniques and trying to hold my tongue. I don't want to be a bitter, mean womzn. But it is quite difficult to be kind and pleasant with a rude and constantly sarcastic adolescent. He has me so twisted that I can't think straight !! It's hard to bite my tongue when he tells me to "f*ck off". He won't get a job, won't even get up before noon and won't follow any of the house rules. I've told him to move out but he just says f u.......I don't know how we got here.  I'm either crying or I'm angry. I can't go on like this yet I have no choice.  I feel like my choices have been taken away from me just because I'm a woman. He wouldn't treat his dad like that!!

I get the angry part! I have been really mad lately and it\'s difficult to be positive. Where does your son get money from? It must be difficult to get someone to leave your home who doesn\'t want to. It\'s too bad you don\'t have support.
Sending you hugs,

Hey, I just sent you a hug before I noticed your journal entry. I\'d love it if you can teach me any of the relaxation techniques, or maybe recommend any books you learned them from. Gosh, your kid sure sounds rude. I\'d probably talk back and try to tear him a new one!

You do have a choice honey. If your son is of age, then he needs to go. The next time he goes out, change the locks and tell him you will have his things waiting for him outside. Enough abuse, you don\'t deserve any of it. I can\'t believe he is so disrespectful to you, that really makes ME angry. Stand up to him and let him know you are not going to be treated like that.
