Sometimes I wish life was perfect, sometimes I wish I could say I love life, when in fact I don't.
My son drives me crazy and I often wonder what I did wrong do deserve such a nightmare of a child. For the first time in 13 years I am saying "I hate my son". Some of you may think I am a bit harsh and cruel, when in fact my son is that person. He is mean to people, rude, selfish, uncaring and he acts like a complete asshole. Quite honestly, I don't know how much more I can take. He was suspended from school last week. I fight for him tooth and nail and he gets kicked off the bus this week. He makes me look like a bad mother and I can't stand it anymore. I am so embarrassed by him and he doesn't even care. As I sit her typing this post, the reality has set in for me. I hurt so much inside by saying that it has brought tears to my eyes. This is because at the same time I love him and I have tried to do everything I can for him, all I get in return is shame and embarrassment.
Other parents must think that I am a monster, I mean is the misconception that we have raised our kids this way. We must condone the behaviors and we must not care. For me that is not true at all. I didn't ask to have my son grow up and be a, well, an asshole. I didn't teach him to behave this way, so why does he do this??? It is one thing after another and it feels like it will never stop..
I wish, I wish that I could go to sleep, wake up and have my nightmare come to an end..
Tomorrow though, I will wake up and my nightmare will just continue for another day.
5 Verbal..ugh..written diarrhea's:
i think you should mentally project love towards him on a daily basis. devote half an hour daily and just mentally direct loving thoughts towards your son. i've tried it on some people in my life and it seems to work for me. try it for a month and see whether this simple exercise works. you've got nothing to lose :)
That's a boy for ya. Hope things are okay over there. Nice Halloween template btw :D
Sit back and breathe. This too, shall pass.
Having been through this three times, I have an idea what you're going through. My oldest daughter was suspended twice during her freshman year of high school for fighting.
My wife would have a better knowledge of this since she handled most of the stuff.
At this point what you need from your husband is several non sexual hugs.
I know how you feel. My 5 year old isn't that bad but I feel so so much the same way as you do today. My suggestion is get the book: Parenting from the inside out by Daniel Siegel (I will gain nothing from you buying this BTW) I just got it b/c an amazing therapist recommended it to me and my ex husband. I've read about 45 pages and it is very good. It's amazing how many parents feel this way
It's just such a period. Sometimes you think that you hate everybodyand don't know what you live for. It will end and all the problems will be solved.
