[QUOTE="PennyFromTheBlock, post: 678865, member: 18271"] Wanted to come and give a quick update- son left Sunday. I had to travel out of town for work on Monday and got home today. To my empty, quiet house. My daughter came by when she got off work- she indicated that she talked to her brother about the events of Sunday again- and how she was able to deflect when he started the whole "it's not that big of a deal, a hole in the wall can be fixed" mess- Then she mentioned that she thinks if he doesn't learn to control his anger/temper, that this poor baby is going to grow up and be afraid of his own daddy. Well, after she left, I thought more about that and have had a good cry. It's just horrible! I mean, I'm proud of my son to the degree that like many young men, he very well could have walked away. He didn't. He does take good 'physical' care of his baby. He mentioned to his sister that he is not going to let SweetBaby grow up and be a 'punk' like he was and get picked on all his life. The sad thing is instead of teaching that young man some self esteem and stressing book smarts, and being friendly- he's going to basically teach him to take no **** from anyone. Why, this sweet baby will grow up and be a tyrant! I can't worry about this. I can't. I just stay involved and my eyes open. That's all I can do. I don't miss my son. [/QUOTE]
