Miserably Me...............

I was sending Marvell to school this morning, upon arrival, I was already crying,he saw me crying,he too cried with me, before I bid "bye bye " him, I asked him to pray for me......he prayed

"Lord,please give my papa peace,and please help"ger ger" to turn over new leaf" I saw his tears, gave him a hug and said I love you"

I had nasty argument with Jovial this morning..................................and I am still trying to figure out the best of ways to handle my 15 years old boy......

P/S : I am still trying.........

  5. Eugene, take it easy. sometimes I am in your situation too, and I think yours is tougher than mine when dealing wt teenager. We love them so much that some times we take it too hard. I always remind myself, take it easy, take it easy... I think for now, he needs some personal times.

  7. Take it easy bro. Understand fully well when I went through that with Reuben but he turns out to be a good kid now and our relationship has never been better ...Ultimately, they will know that we love them more than anything else ...

  9. More communication n try to think on his point of view....
    i could say that many problems could b due to less communication...
    When u angry .. try not to talk .. just walk away.....
    Cool down n discuss later ...

  12. Talk to Jovial again after both of you have cool down. Listen up to him then only you have him to listen up to you. I am sure you can do it. Take heart, Eugune.

  14. Eugene, to share with you; I have a 14 year old boy and one thing I learned is I should not lower myself to his level/standard of understanding the world.

    I should not and argue/ debat with him tit-for-tat. In any disgreement ,I learned to be very firm with my opinions and think of myself as a very good boss to him, a boss with strong backbone but fair and yet love him unconditionally.
    If I need to walk away, I tell him I will talk to him later.
    In a nut shell, we should not argue, talk-down, shout or belittle them. I don't beleieve we should be their "friend" at this stage as they are still learning.

    May be when they are 30 years old with a job and responsibility , then we can be friend.
    Well, I am still learning too...

    Take care my friend...

  19. I see my friends had the same encounter too with their teenage kids. One son ran away for 2 days and scared my friend like hell. Now he tries to allow the son some space to breathe and grow up. It worked somehow. Take care!
