[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sick today and my twelve year old DS told me to "stop whining and bitching about it."

A lot of people think it's terrible that he would speak to me like that- but because I'm his mom, I know his ADHD makes him impulsive but not mean.

It hurt my feelings and of course I talked with him about being respectful. He balances out some nastiness with some exceptionally nice behavior- he used my phone to text back and forth with his elderly grandmother quite bit this morning (she loved it) and he paid attention to our needy, affectionate dog.

DH is on work travel- and family lives far away, so no fancy brunches, but that's okay.

Being a parent is kind of hard and complicated sometimes- especially when kids are in some rough patches of tween and teen. I love my DS and I think he's a blessing (even on bad days). [/quote]

Sorry, but good moms don’t allow disrespect like that, nor do they write it off as being apart of a disease. Your son has major boundary and respect issues— and should have gotten the shit knocked out of him...simple as that[/quote]

I’m not the pp you were responding to, but...good moms knock the shit out of their kids? In that case, I guess I’m not a good mom either.[/quote]

If you allow your child to talk to you any kind of way, than no, you are not a good mother. Period. Teens and preteens are old enough to get slapped[/quote]

Yikes. Teaching your kids that the way to deal with others’ unacceptable behavior is to respond with violence?  No wonder we have such a violence problem in this country.[/quote]

Responding as a doormat is better?[/quote]
