[quote=Anonymous]I have a 14 and 18 year old. If the 14 year old said he had a headache, I'd let him stay home but I wouldn't for the 18 year old. The 18 year old tends to claim physical or llnesses if he gets stressed. If we let him stay home, he'd never go to school. Also, we rarely ever let our kids stay home so they do t ask unless they feel really bad. OP, not sure I'd be demanding apologies. I'm not accepting of rudeness. But it's s stressful time for seniors. I know that when I'm really stressed, I sometimes snap at people. It's not ok, but even as an adult we do it. One thing I would do if I needed to that you didn't mention is that I'd take my car keys. I'd also be looking for some positive ways to be together. For us, I can get my son to watch TV with me sometimes so we have a show that we make time for every week. [/quote]
