trying to hang on
My difficult child son called me at 11:30 on Friday night to tell me that he needed a ride home because he had quit his job. I told him to call a cab. I asked him why he quit and he told me he was tired of them disrespecting him. What a laugh, if I quit because of disrespect I would have quit being his mom a very long time ago. I asked him why he called me for a ride and he tells me something about me calming him down and his phone getting ready to die and he didn't want it to die in the middle of calling for a cab. (What?) My son is so full of it sometimes I do believe his eyes are brown. I told him well you know what your bills are so I suggest you find a job tomorrow. When my husband talked to him on Saturday he had just gotten up (1:30pm) He was very tired because he didn't sleep because of his job situation. More like he stayed up playing video games all night. He thinks we have STUPID stamped on our foreheads. My husband told him that they don't allow video games in the homeless shelter, but I don't think difficult child son believes we will let him fail, he is in for a rude awakening. My mom called on Sunday and asked if my son was working I told her he had quit his job. She wants to take everything personal and I told her that he is making these choices and he will have to live with the consequenses. She then tells me she hasn't heard from him lately. I told her she would when he needed something, but she doesn't believe that, she thinks she is immune to his using people. I told her that is the way he operates with everyone. I don't know he just makes me CRAZY! and my mom wants to continue to make excuses for him. Thanks for letting me vent, I am so glad I found this website. :smile:
