I Have Almost Had Enough

Resilience. I surely must have some. I am almost at breaking point.
I never thought raising a teenager would be so much strain on a relationship. I suppose the rest of the kids were raised by their mothers and my boy is the only one that I have raised up until now.

The kids in the house have been yelling at each other.
My boy has admitted he is angry at me, but does not know why.
He was suspended today for 10 days from High School due to anger. Someone stirred him that much he lost it and picked up a chair and threw it.

He was meant to be going to a psych for his anger and I swear some of them are just in it for the money and not to help. All she did was ask him how he was feeling. Anyway, I have changed his psych now.

But what am I meant to do. I am at my wits end. I don't want Margaret to see me lose it and I don't want to fall back down the ladder that far every again. I just can't do it anymore.

Its really just f*cked.

Why do kids have so many problems these days. When I was a kid you just sorted it out and that was that. Now they are mean and nasty and there is too much violence.
They all need to be taken to the emergency ward of a hospital and see what damage can be done.
They should all be shown video footage of starving and dying children who have no belongings and no food or water. They should all be locked up with some really nasty mother f*ckers like that show 'Scared Straight'. They locked a room full of teenagers in with prisoners in maximum security.

They think they have lots to worry about. They have food, good clothes, play sport, have laptops and phones yet they are so ungrateful and think they have a right to yell at their parents .

Whats happened to this world
 
You'd do anything to help your boy I'm sure and getting hin to the child psych is probably be the best approach for you all. I guess he wont be feeling so good about being suspended for 10 days in a few days time and hopefully he'll be able to feel some remorse.

You've definitely got resilience Jimmy! And a load of wisdom :tup:. This is a challenge at the moment but one day you'll be able to look back and laugh about it. When he's older I think the Aussie way is to kick him in the nuts :)

best wishes
