This is something I wasn’t planning on doing but I don’t know who else to talk about this. My teenager is awful, I really hate to say it but I need to get this off my chest. My teenager upsets me nearly everyday and goes into deep conversations every week about the past blaming me for everything. We sold our home a few years ago and that’s only one of the things I’m so often blamed for. The everyday things are their political beliefs, my teenager has such strong political beliefs but my teenager hates that our political beliefs don’t always align, this child wants me to always believe everything that they do. They’re a complete control freak and a hoarder, if I even touch one of the amazon boxes or bottles or random foods that they say they’ll eat but never will then they will get very upset. My child has no siblings and I’m also blamed for the fact that I didn’t give them siblings. I tried to give this child siblings and miscarried many times. They’ve told me they don’t like me and I’ve accepted that. They’re also a total hermit, staying at home for months at a time and not talking to anyone . Am I the reason they’re the way they are or is it just them? Some of the positive things about this child is that they excel academically and already know exactly what career they’ll have and are working on it. They are very bright and have been since a young age. However I’m tired of being blamed for everything I’ve ever done because they don’t like that I did it. They are extremely manipulative and know exactly how to make me feel like I’m in the wrong when they made me sad but can also be so sweet sometimes and I don’t know what to do anymore.
