Quote From: cbatte10Yes, he is only 16 and you are right in my opinion to want to do something to stop his behavior. I am going through something similar except with a 13 year old daughter. I am hurting inside very much not just for myself but for her. I do not want to see her throw her life away as if it means nothing. I also do not have the resources that I wish that I could have. I would never in a million years let her see me destroy myself because of her. I am not afraid or ashamed to cry in front of her but there is no way that I will give my own power away because that will not help her at all. I do not feel qualified to give you or anyone advise, but I feel for you because I am in a very similar situation. Take care of yourself, at least try so that he can get the benefit of you as his mom and also your daughter who deserves you. Celia Maybe I don't understand life like some of you because I am so very young, and I myself have no children, but I don have a 17-year old brother who is almost in the same perdicament. He has is what most people would call "a problem child" since the age of 5 he has been cussing like a sailor, he got kicked out of our elementary school when he was in 1st or maybe it was 2nd grade, he has vandalized school property, ran my mother and my father's phone bill up to about $800 on both lines talking on a chat room. He has my mother crying, and my father embrassed. Now if that doesn't make your "problem child" seem like the muffin man then your child must be a felon. Now as you see I can't fix the problem, I only 16 and he's my brother. But when I look at it closely I see that my brother has gotten off on a bad ass since he was younger, so now since everyone always thinks he's the problem everytime, all the time, then he figures that he should give them a reason to label him as the "problemed child"
