I feel like an absolute failure as a parent. I shouldn’t feel this way about my son, I look at him and just feel rage and it shouldn’t be this way. I feel so sad about it. I really do. I wish I knew how to change things.
I have 2 other children who I feel only love for, but with DS1 I just feel anger, he’s selfish, lazy and downright nasty at times. He’s making my younger Children’s life’s hell. He doesn’t respect our home, he makes an absolute mess and won’t clear it up. He’s been chucked out of college due to non attendance. He works so there’s that, but it’s hell to live with him, his attitude is disgusting. I dislike him, his views are horrible, I can’t even have a conversation with him because of his racist, sexist, homophobic views. He refuses to pay rent. He won’t even clean up his own room. I feel like giving up, been sat here crying for the last hour as I just don’t know what to do anymore. I’m at the point where I would be happy for him to leave.

Childrens services his age is against him he will be 18 in a while so they know it will be out of their hands. Looking at the times on the messages is he on late at night early morning.

Dramaqueen2019 · 23/04/2019 22:40

Yes, he goes online once I am asleep.

That’s when his “friends” from America are awake, that’s why I think he’s on at that time.

OP I am so sorry for what you're going through. I can't offer anything other than a virtual hand to hold. You're doing everything right Flowers

real name alert OP

murasaki · 24/04/2019 12:28

And so sorry to read about your horrific situation

Dramaqueen2019 · 24/04/2019 12:30

Omg keep doing that! I’ll report

OP posts:
Dramaqueen2019 · 24/04/2019 12:30

I don’t know how to report 😫

I suspected this would be the case DQ so sorry. As for an ASD diagnosis that does a disservice to ASD folk who manage without being a danger to family and society. I think the police are your friends just now, they can bring leverage to bear hopefully.

Dramaqueen2019 · 24/04/2019 12:33

They said he may fall into the grey area between different diagnoses. And they’ll need his consent to do a full assesment as he has capacity and hasn’t actually done anything illegal. If this is just him, I don’t want him here. And I know that sounds awful.

Dramaqueen2019 · 24/04/2019 12:34

And yes I agree justasking my 12 year old with asd is honestly the most lovely non judgemental, kindest person you could ever meet.

murasaki · 24/04/2019 12:34

I reported for you, asking for the name to be redacted, there's a button on the top right, hopefully it will work as I've not tried it before.

HopeMumsnet · 24/04/2019 12:38

Hi there Drama,
Don't worry, we've zapped that now.
All the best to you.

Dramaqueen2019 · 24/04/2019 12:39

Thank you

murasaki · 24/04/2019 12:40

That was quick, thanks HopeMumsnet.

pinkgloves · 24/04/2019 13:36

That doesn't sound awful op. Honestly, if I were you, I'd really be thinking about getting him out of the house. And I say that only having a pfb son who I adore. You need to protect yourself and your younger kids.

What a horrible situation though. Thanks

Dramaqueen2019 · 24/04/2019 14:19

They didn’t even speak to DS today, just me. They’ve seen him once

Hi OP, how are you getting on today?

I've been following for a few days and have nothing more helpful or knowledgeable to contribute than others have, but I think you're doing amazingly and all of your kids are lucky to have you.

Thinking of you Flowers

ThatCurlyGirl · 25/04/2019 16:48

Just another supporter checking in to let you know I've been thinking positive thoughts for you.

I absolutely believe you're doing the right thing for all of your kids, him and also his siblings.

You sound like a brilliant, brilliant mum who has spotted the potential for something terrible and addressed it bravely.

You've done the right thing not the easy thing - you are GREAT Thanks

jinglet · 27/04/2019 01:56

So they're grooming your son to carry out a terrorist attack of some sort on Muslims/Jews and have some kind of plan in place (it seems from your posts) and they police haven't still arrested him?!!!!

wontletmelogin · 01/05/2019 19:17

Hows things OP? x
