[QUOTE="Tired out, post: 736446, member: 23103"] Our son is 21 and he started making bad choices as a teen. It escalated to stealing from us, items not cash,( the items were actually gifts he had given to his dad, I think taking them was to hurt his dad) but he has since come clean that he sold them to a licensed reseller. At least the stuff isn't floating around. There hasn't been anything to result in jail or probation [I]yet and I prey it never gets that bad.[/I] He has impulse control and anger issues. Trying to make himself sound great/tough he exaggerates, lies and gets himself in trouble. He should write stories, he is full of them. The anger comes when he is called out on a story or is told to do something he doesn't feel like doing, he has authority issues. The line[I] "Earth is Hard wrote, "I remember him saying, 'it's not you going through this, I am'." [/I]We have also heard from our son. That woke me up. I will love him but I will do my best not to take on his issues and to just listen to him and let it go. Only a small portion of what he says is true. I need to update the thread I started in March. Good luck. You know you aren't alone. [/QUOTE]
