[QUOTE="tonysmom821, post: 84745, member: 4176"] I am new here in fact this is my first post. I'm glad that I believe I have found a place where people understand. I'm so tired of talking to my friends with these "perfect" children. I hear these stories and I just want to sink in my chair. My son is 15 and just recently started acting out. He just doesn't want to put in any effort in school. He wants the easy way. Lately he was bucking me about school. I would sit there and help him with his homework for two hours a night and then the next day he wouldn't even turn it in. What's the point. So last week my husband (stepdad), his Dad, and me banded together for the first time and said we are not going to tolerate this behavior. My son now lives with his Dad who is just across town. Now he has to get up 30 minutes early to go to school, and his Dad is making him responsible for his own things. I know I have to cut the apron strings since this is my only child. I'm sad that he can't live with me, but I can't tolerate a child who curses at me, is disrespectful. He's got to learn. My son just doesn't want to put forth effort in anything. Right now he's in counseling and seeing a neurologist. We have been there done that with medication (4 types), he's ADD, Aspergers. Right now I'm tired, worn out, frustrated. My kid could have everything if he would just act right. I know you guys understand. Thanks for listening. Mary [/QUOTE]
