17 DS, rude, arrogant, messy, always arguing with anything I say, always on internet\phone and rarely goes out.
Has had the same job (loading dishwasher) since he was 12 and he still won't do it properly as he says my way is not the only way. Please tell me, you rinse plates before they go in, don't you?
The constant lies drive me mad as do some of the incredible tall stories he has made up about his life on facebook. Why he can't go on a family day out because the manager of his Saturday job doesn't like him and won't put his leave request through ( its not true, I rang personnel)
He missed 4 weeks of college becasue he could be bothered going to lessons even tho he was in the college common room with his girlfriend.
I have younger children who are being affected by my constantly having to pull him up about something or other and it cant go on.
When I tell him his behaviour is not acceptable he says, what are you going to do? Throw me out? Or even hit me? I slapped his face once about 6 months ago for the vile filth that came out of it, and I would have dont the same to anyone else who spoke to me like.
He won't see GP or college counsellor as "if she would just leave me the fuck alone I would be fine"
What would you do? I've obviously been a really poor mother haven't I, he really isn't the man I hoped he would become :(
