You did the right thing with your son. Wish I had made mine spend at least one whole weekend with their dad when he left. But I was afraid they would leave for good?? not sure
These kids get very good at manipulating us and making us believe that we are the bad guy and you did ok. You need to take this time and relax do not worry about s. For think about it did his dad wait up all those nights and wonder where his son was?
time for dad to be the mean guy the parent and this is going to be hard for your H for they do not like being the parent. They are just as afraid to lose the love of their child as we are. Only thing is... in my case... my kids have lost repsect for their dad and he won't tell them what to do and they know it. I have been told by my d18..."dad won't say no he is afraid I won't love him any more"
so they play the game.
I am hoping for you that this helps bring you and your son together for he will see that dad is not putting up with him and that he is going to have to get his act together.
mine are 18 and 21 and I still want to strangle them some days when they think they can just do what they want when they want in my house.
make your list of things you need to do.... seeing what you accomplish will help motivate you and make you realize your getting stuff done. life gets overwhelming at times.....
good luck... sending {{{hugs}}}
