This is my first post. Don't want to drip feed so background: DS has had behavioural problems since he was about 7, he's almost 16 now. He has never thought about consequences of his actions and how they affect others. Tried counselling, NSPCC group, Doctors etc. They all say nothing wrong with him (I divorced his dad when he was 9 so that tends to be blamed for his issues now). DS lives with his Dad (his choice two years ago) We were getting on better as I didn't have the day to day stuff to deal with (his Dad chooses not to work so has time to go to the school when they call constantly).
Anyway recently found out he had stolen many things from both me, my DD and my sis/parents. He has a weed habit. None of my family (or me) have seen him lately as we are waiting for him to at least apologise (he has to me but no-one else). I pay for a phone contract for him and found out today he had sold the phone and the contract sim, I normally message him on FB so I hadn't tried the number, when I did ring tonight I got some random woman who told me she bought the phone with sim in. I was livid, and really upset. I have messaged him and he doesn't get what my problem is as I have to pay the monthly amount until the contract ends anyway - his words! This is just one more thing in a whole list of things. I'm so sick of crying over DS, seems to be all I do. I just don't understand why he is like this. My DD18 is lovely and honest, how can they be so different?
I just needed to vent, so thank you if you read my rant.
