I’m just so over my children that I can’t think straight. Why are they lovely human beings until they turn 15? It’s like at 15, a flip switches and I don’t recognize them anymore.
Aidan turned 15 in November. He was my straight A kid. Now it’s all B’s because he doesn’t turn in homework and doesn’t care anymore. He was thrilled about going on this exchange program to Melk. Now he is refusing to go. Refusing. I don’t think we can get the 2k back we invested and don’t even know if we can back out. He is emphatic that he will not be going. There is no talking to him.
Im very disappointed and frustrated. It’s like the older three all over again. I cannot go through this with Zoe. I have done everything “right”. I feel like now I should have given them less. Fewer activities, rides, trips to movies, vacations... maybe if they actually had had to want for something they would appreciate what they have more.
