[quote=Anonymous]I agree that his tank is probably low when he gets home, but it’s still unacceptable to be rude to adults. When he’s in a good mood, sit down with him and explain what you have noticed and what you want him to do instead. He can be expected to say hi. That’s not unreasonable. If you want this, make it clear. I’d make a short list of rules in writing and give him a copy. He can get his own snack. If the chores aren’t done by whatever time you said, take the phone. Predetermine this. Nagging him just fuels the fire. He can set an alert on his phone for a time warning.

If he’s continually rude, and you are sure you are giving him time to decompress and aren’t in his face all the time, then there are consequences. You can take the door off his room, you can keep the phone and give him a flip phone, etc.

You have to determine what is driving his behavior and give him other outlets for it. Does he need a therapist? Ask him what he is thinking and feeling when he acts like this. He may respond better to you in writing than verbally. See a family therapist for a few sessions. [/quote]
