Hi all, I'm very glad to find you.
Things are spiraling out of control in my home. My 17 yr old son seems to think he is in charge, I know he is using drugs & very disrespectful to me. Recently his friend has been staying at our home, just what we needed, can't handle one difficult child now we have 2. Told my son his friend needs to go home. He doesn't see why since we have extra rooms & I must be terrible mean. I talked to friend's mom & she is willing to meet me to get the kid however the kid won't go with her, my son & him take off on foot & of course end up back at our house later that night.
My son has destroyed our home, the walls in the basement has huge holes in them, He breaks things when he gets mad, light bulbs. picture frames, flower pots, printers. TV you name it he breaks it. Well H moved his X box tonight & it inadvertantly scratched his game & he is rip roaring mad, yelling that we owe him 25 dollars after all the hundreds of dollars of damage he has caused. HE drops F bombs left & right & all the while this uninvited guest is in our house. We have called the police before & they take him out but he just comes back later.
My difficult child has been in treatment, arrested multiple times, suspended from school. He refused to get any help at all & pretty much won't talk to me.
I wake up every morning with a bleeding knot in my stomach & it is there when I go to bed.
Grace of God has gotten me through so far.
