sounds like your doing your part. Keep up the good work. If the worlds future had father figures that understand what you just said, and follow through, we’d have way less problems.It takes a lot of sacrafice to raise kids, problem is most think it's just providing for them financially and the basic hypocritical do as I say not as I do philosophy, which never develops intimacy. I have two boys 15 and one almost 14 and the time involved to really have them in tune emotionally and mentally has cost me a ton of money with how much work I've sacrificed over the years (and early, consistent whoopings) but I always get compliments on how well behaved and polite they are...but it takes all the important abilities that society robs men of today....availability, responsiblity, accountability and especially vulnerability. Problem is most of us never learn these things growing up, and think those things make a man weak
My favortie part was the hostile snatch and grab. I remember those times from when I was a kid very clearly. It didn't happen often at all but you can bet it woke me up enough to not want to make it a regular thing. Amazing how effective a dads tough love can straighten a kid right out. Clearly none of us are into beating a child. But a well placed and well timed physical correction works wonders. I respected my dad more than anything after those couple events.I know this pain all too well. Hang in there bro, teens do listen and they hear you even though there is almost no proof at all by their actions, remember these words, "this too shall pass"
My oldest started losing his shit daily at 14 ... now hes 18, I couldn’t be more proud of him! It wasn’t easy and it took a fukkn aircraft carrier full of patience and unconditional love. And, a coupe of hostile snatch and grabs to put him on his ass when he needed to be checked
But it in the end he is rocking life and he is just like me, lol now ain’t that a motherfucker

T And, he is a narcassist.
This right here . My daughter is the cause of all of the fights with my wife we just don’t agree and the kid plays on it . I just found out she has been putting 125 a week in gas on our credit card and I’m pissed . No job and summertime where the hell is she going that costs me 500 a month on top of the car note and insurance about 1k a month in total .THAT was the exact problem I had with the oldest. Thought he was entitled to everything and nothing he ever did was wrong. Kid could be pissing on the kitchen table and wonder why you were mad at him. I feel your pain. Just do your best not to let him put a wedge in your marriage. Kids wreck homes almost as bad as sluts. Maybe worse, cause you have to live with them.

Giant fucking myth.Aren’t sons usually easier when they hit puberty? My girl has been awesome and very well behaved but I’m worried about the teen years coming up. The boy has been a hellion since birth. I get it though he just has non stop energy and likes to destroy shit. I can relate

The thing about the snatch and grab, it's been having to happen regularly lately... Like once a month.
I don't understand the kid. He's great most of the time. He does dumb shit live every kid BUT, when he does get into trouble he won't shut up and he won't let it go. He'll keep on and on with everyone in the house all day. He also likes to raise his voice. And, he is a narcassist.
Yday he pushed his mom in the laundry room and before I could unleash hell, she grabbed him by his fucking hair and pulled his ass to the side.
I'm afraid that One day I'm going to really lose it if something like that happens.
