Hello there!
I just wanted to introduce myself.
I am brand-new to this forum and seems like a Godsend to me.
I feel so alone in all of this. No one seems to understand.
I feel like a failure as a parent.
I am struggling badly dealing with my VERY ODD/ADHD 16 year old & my patience with him is completely worn out! Expecially since Summer started and I am currently layed off. Its to the point I don't even want to talk to him at all -- we just end up fighting.
I am currently reading the book "10 Days to a Less Defiant Child".
Looking forward to meeting all of you, getting advice and hopefully being able of offer some. The trials and tribulations of parenting, nobody gave me a handbook on THIS when I left the hospital with them. lol
