    Ugh

    Difficult Child snuck out of the house last night and was out till 5:30 am. We drug tested him. He tested positive for pot. We called the police. They came over but told us that there is nothing they can do. That consuming pot isn’t illegal but possession is. This makes no sense to me. These were a bunch of...

    Police citation

    heard from the school police officer. D.C. will be served at school with a disorderly conduct citation for fighting at school (includes a fine and a mandatory hearing in front of the judge). I am relieved that something is actually happening. For too long D.C. has been the teflon kid (my name...

    Why do I always question myself?

    My D.C. Is 16 years old. I won't go into his whole history, but these behaviors have been going on for 7 long years. He was just suspended for 2 days from school for fighting. This is his 2nd code of conduct disorder (for sports). Last year he got one for smoking pot. The school went easy on him...

Anyone else dealing with over sexualized behavior? I know he's a teen but this is much more than being a teen. I don't care if he's...

    Proud of myself

    today we got an email that my high school age son is failing English. He already failed math and will need to retake it next year. I calmly informed him that he is failing English (he is well aware) and told him that if he doesn't fix it that he will not graduate on time and will not be...

    lying

    Why does everything have to include a lie? Why is it too much to expect that my child can form one sentence without telling a lie? It has gotten to the point where I do not believe anything that he says to me. He has no "tells" when he lies. And I end up feeling angry and annoyed when I find...

    Weary mom of 15 year old son

    We (my husband and I) have had issues with our son for the last 6 years. Every time he would lie, steal, fail a class, etc, we would think "what could we do differently?". This past year we finally figured out that there is something drastically wrong and it isn't our parenting style. We...
