little more about this.


He's starting to date and has a girlfriend which is causing problems, he lied about where he was going and where he was for 4 hours yesterday afternoon.

I wouldn't care that he was at her house , I care that he lied to me when we've always been cool and honest about every thing.

And he turned the location on his phone off, little shite.

I will get quiet and let it eat at me until I explode and there's no telling what I will say. But that's in the case where the same thing I've addressed more than once is ignored.

Congratulations on becoming a grandpa!

Also, he turned the location off on the phone I presume that you're paying for. That phone would be locked in my safe for a month. You gon learn today!

yeah I feel you there. The problem like someone else said in reply to taking his phone away would allow him more stealth cause you cant keep your eye on a 14 year old 24/7. It’s kind of a double edged sword. Taking the phone away, however, is a solid punishment these days though cause kids go crazy without their technology. It would teach him. Good luck Torch.

Taking the phone away


Taking the phone away is almost impossible these days, one quick peek and you can see where your child is at all times. If he/she forgets something, needs something, wants something it's one text and makes life easier. We even send money through the phone for food etc etc

My son is an A/B honor roll kid who plays three sports but the girls are coming and I can see his priorities shifting daily, it sucks.

He has too much of his daddy in him

In the rare event that I get angry, my voice gets much, much louder, I go on a vulgar tirade, and look like I'm going to have a stroke. I do my very best to never show my anger to anyone, unless they happen to be sitting in a car while I'm driving or I am watching a sporting event.

If a non person is the cause I’ll do a fair amount of hell raising. If it’s a person I can’t look at them for fear of burning holes thru their skull or speak because I’m sure to escalate the situation very quickly

I get very loud and oddly my voice gets very deep. I have punched walls quite often but control it better now. I really have the urge to hit things when mad but control it well unless the anger is pure rage. Not sure why hitting a wall releases anger..

yeah I understand completely. A good call is to take it at night and give it back in the morning when you know he is home safe. Thats a punishment ive heard from some parents.

I’ve learned that control is an illusion, that the only thing I can control is my attitude, and behavior. I am not that emotion, I am observing that emotion, I am not mad, I feel mad. No emotion warrants an action, and when it tries to, it’s an opportunity for development, to figure out why that situation propels me out of control. For example, I might lash out at my child, for not listening, because ultimately I have a fear of being a bad father, how Ironic that the fear of being a bad father expresses itself by being a bad father. These fears originate in childhood, talk about a mindfrick learning those.

Outrage is a form of conviction, and I always question that, even in myself. I always am drawn to play the devils advocate. Just don’t see how people can be so confident. The smartest people can express their position without emotion or obvious bias, and it’s hard to tell what side they are on.

It's the people who get quiet when they get angry that scare me the most.

That’s because they’re thinking about what they’re about to do. Rage plus planning.
