[quote=Anonymous]Our 15 year old has been acting like a jerk; for about ONE YEAR now. I mean.. I know the teen years are tough but I’m losing patience on how he treats me and everyone around him. He gets straight A’s so that’s not an issue; he acts like a spoiled jerk on most days. Honestly its bringing back bad memories for me when I was his age; I try so hard to be the parent I wished I had when I was a teenager. I have abandonment issues that my mom gaslights me about .. and I am so sad this child who doesn’t know my story doesn’t show the bare minimum respect.
Perfect example today after camp we planned on shopping for sports gear for him and then grab dinner out since we had not planned to go grocery shopping until tomorrow. After resting for about an hour after camp we were about to go out and he got in his feelings about something the dog did; and he decided he’s not going out. He locked the bedroom door and refused to go like a toddler. We took away x-box and FortNite about 2 months ago due to raging. Now he’s just scrolling Instagram, and we’re here without dinner. So he gets no dinner and what about us? What are the appropriate consequences for this type of behavior. WWYD? [/quote]
