Have 13 yr old son who is turning my hair grey. He is lazy, never does as he's told without hours of negotiation and time wasting and even then the crappiest standard will do. He does well at school in subjects he likes and totally rubbish at everything else. He always finds the worst mates who he does and says stupid inappropriate things to impress. Never can he come in when he says he will so he is grounded at least half his life.
I find that I can't like him at the moment and this makes me feel really bad. I think he knows this and it must make him worse.
Is he normal? Am I normal? Will he make it to 14 alive do you think?
