[quote=Anonymous]OP, no advice, just sympathy and hugs. Raising kids is challenging, and no choice we make is perfect. Sounds like you are doing the best you can, and things will get better. My 16-year-old is much nicer now than 2 years ago. My 8-year-old, on the other and, is already getting quite sassy…. I have always found it difficult to impose consequences. With the 16-year-old, on rare occasions when we have bad conflicts, it's hard to imagine what an effective consequence could be. I can take all his devices away, but then he can't do homework. I can ground him but somehow it just seems silly (if e wants to leave, he will just leave, he is bigger than stronger than I am). Thankfully it does not happen very often.[/quote]
