I know exactly what it's like having a special needs child. That does not give them the right to be disrespectful. <br />Being a single mom is not an excuse either. I've raised my son alone most of his life. And if he doesn't know anything else, he knows he can not be disrespectful.He is now 24, has graduated and held a job for 3 years until the business closed.<br />I'm sure you will block me after this post and that's okay..<br />I have been reading your blog since you were engaged. I've found most of your entries interesting.<br />Although,I do have to say that you should have been able to help yourself a bit more financially.(pre-back problems). There is such a thing as taking on a part time job. Been there done that.<br />On your blog you've asked why you get the visitors but only a few comments..well, could it be that you don't take the time to acknowledge some of the people that do comment? <br />I would be one of those people. I was interested in your life until I finally realized that you are a writing snob. If someone doesn't interest you, you disregard them. <br />I'll consider myself disregarded and stay off your blog..<br />Maybe that's something you should consider. Staying off your blog and out of your nest and helping your son become a respectful young man.. Keep in mind that how a man treats his mother is a sign of how he will treat his wife.<br />Sherisljhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02605768371187978762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565064927448520692.post-38029001559647373902011-02-20T18:06:30.521-05:002011-02-20T18:06:30.521-05:00I am so sorry you have to go thru this...but I thi...I am so sorry you have to go thru this...but I think you definitely did the right thing. The older he gets the harder it will get unless you put your foot down NOW. <br /><br />Bravo to you...I KNOW it was hard...but you DO deserve to be treated with respect and its great that you stood up for YOU!<br /><br />((HUGS))<br />JeanneJeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05018866548445406706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565064927448520692.post-10378751662540000832011-02-20T18:04:21.576-05:002011-02-20T18:04:21.576-05:00Heather, I am so sorry that Austin in behaving thi...Heather, I am so sorry that Austin in behaving this way, I am praying for you and him. I am so happy that Jim showed him that you were his sister before you were Austin's mom. I am praying for your health also. I hope that Austin realized the seriousness of this situation and comes to respect you and your position in his life as mom,sole provider, nurturer.lisabughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14709910223780754142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565064927448520692.post-3731223089239633522011-02-20T17:54:07.199-05:002011-02-20T17:54:07.199-05:00Good for you, Heather!

I couldn't imagine having a son who was bigger than me acting the way he does with you. I have an almost 18 year old and the closest thing he has ever even questioned me on was reading his text's. I told him I pay the bill for that phone and he is my child therefore it is my right to check up on him from time to time. He actually apologized! :-) <br /><br />Hope this little shakeup is what Austin needs to be a better son to you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
