I'm in tears

Son came home yesterday. Threw a tantrum, started using racial slurs and making sexist comments as well as other offensive comments, locked himself up in a room with my daughter and likely made her uncomfortable. Kept asking me to buy him spraypaint so he could graffiti something vulgar about a group of people (I doubt he actually wants to.. he's undoubtedly trying to provoke me)

He's now calling me repeatedly and begging to come home again today. He just wants money and the celebration. He doesn't understand that his actions have consequences. Not once did I raise my voice at him both today and yesterday

I'm tired

Ahhh you have my sympathy, it's horrible being on the receiving end of a tantrum and not knowing what sparked it.

Sounds like DS was upset with something else but took it out on you, try not to take it personally.

Deep breath, and see how you feel about seeing him today.

You've got this.

If my DS behaved like that he wouldn't be coming back to my house the next day. Why does he want money? If he wants money then he can learn to behave.
How old is he?
Is he taking drugs. More information needed.
