Relentless

Oh hell, teenager,
You use hormonal claws
To hurt us every day.

From afternoon waking,
The words you spit
Make me feel shit.

If looks could kill,
Yours would torture me first
And worst,

You turn all I do
(Meant only as care)
To bitter despair.

But here it is:
Until the dark creases
Of hormones and adjustments ceases
And you're human,

Your disrespect
Won't enrage me
Your embarrassment
Upstage me
Your selfishness abhor me
Your distance 'locked door' me
Your spite alienate me
And though you may hate me

I will be relentlessly
Here.

Love this! I have a 21 year old and it does get better. We found the key was to not give her too much to push back against. Saved our relationship and now she actually listens to our advise. Good luck! It's a stormy road.

You mean you didn't confront over the less important things?

We collaborated with her on a contract where privileges and consequences were spelled out. She got a lot of freedom for towing certain lines. When she didn't the consequences we all had agreed upon were enforced. Look to their friends. If you think they're good kids then you likely can trust your child to honor this contract. If not, there are bigger problems. Good luck!

Reading this makes me feel guilty yet appreciative. I like it.

The great thing about kids is their 'hate' soon turns to love.

As far as I can see it goes full cycle... Love to hate and back. Teens are aliens. Then they come back. :-)
