[QUOTE="Enmeshedmom, post: 733216, member: 22547"] I have found that most 15 year old kids are selfish. I think he is just trying to manipulate the situation to make you miss him enough to say “ok you can use the computer for a little while if you come see us.” Try not to take it personally, at this age he can’t see past his needs. He is no where near finished growing yet... emotionally speaking. I remember thinking when my son was 13 to 15 that he was never going to have any empathy for anyone nor any sense of responsibility for his own actions. I’m glad to say even with the struggles we do have today he has developed those characteristics. He still has work to do on taking responsibility but he is in the process. I’ll never forget the day that we had a big argument to the point I ended up in tears and he went to his room and slammed the door. Well about 30 minutes later he came out and said he was sorry for the way he acted and making me cry. After the shock wore off I cried happy tears because I never thought those words would pass his lips. Hang in there. [/QUOTE]
