Danged hot headed kid, threw a helluva tantrum yesterday.

[JohnnyLib2]

Came bursting in the door, cussin' and hollerin'. Said somebody dissed his friend. (Others didn't take it that way) 4000 texts and phone calls later, he was in full meltdown--hand through wall, smashing his electronics, trashing his friends.

Calmed down some overnight, until the messages started again.

Looks pretty pissy still this morning.

Loading up the rest of the crew, we'll just leave for a few hours, check back later. Uncle Al down the street can keep an eye out.

Pray for us. This anger management stuff doesn't come natural. I really wanta go back at him.

Later, JL2

1. Wow. I'm sorry.

How old?

[JohnnyLib2]

2. Old enough to know better.

:evilgrin:

3. Anger management is tough stuff.

I had a couple of patients many moons ago and yikes, it was a tough road for everyone. Sometimes you just have to wait it out.

Best to you.

4. Is there an analogy being constructed here? This being GD-P and all...

9. Ya think? n/t

10. Wow, the few hours away were refreshing.

Sad to say, the hissyfit continues. Uncle Al tried to reason with the kid, but got an earful. Guess we just wait it out, counting on the laws of nature (and exhaustion) to take over. :crazy:

[JohnnyLib2]

12. What? You accusing me of double meanings?

Oops--- anger management------- counting to 10. :hi:

[BlackVelvet04]

18. Who me? never....

[skooooo]

5. uh..maybe take the phone away??

So he can't get the messages??

[JohnnyLib2]

14. Defeated on that.

Techno-messages coming in all forms. I think the kid has an implant?

[JohnnyLib2]

[Orangepeel]

8. sounds rough. Maybe he's "bitter" n/t

[JohnnyLib2]

16. An understatement.

I wouldn't dare try to say "sticks and stones may break my bones.........."
:pals:

13. Hang in there. Your anger won't help anything.

He needs to learn to manage his own - you setting an example is good.

[JohnnyLib2]

15. It's getting harder across this weekend.

Deep breathing. Soothing music. Long walks. :banghead:

[JerseygirlCT]

17. I know. They're trying, aren't they?

This too shall pass. And then you'll miss these days. Keep telling yourself that. Picture him as an adorable baby and remember that (or insert any age you really loved). Remember how quickly it went by?

You'll make it!

19. If I didn't know better....

I'd say this was a damned good analogy...wb
