I’m not proud I turned into a shouty mum. But I have just hit the low point. Have a 15 DS and a 14 DD born spend a lot of time in their rooms and only appear when food is ready. I lost it because all week I’ve asked them to do homework tidy room and they do it today after telling me they had no homework and yes they would do their room. I can’t remember the last time one of them hugged me asked if I was ok how my day was ect. The constant demands of money and take me places ect is constant. Me and DC dad not together but have remarried a lovely man who don’t really get involved unless one of the DC ask for help so am trumpeting my own and feel I’ve messed up. I didn’t want to lose it with them and never have before. I had a awful childhood and feel I’ve turned into my mother who I was put into care for my now safety. How do you all cope with teenagers and what’s normal what’s not. 😓
