Nothing is helping no matter what my mom or i do. She's a single parent of 4 (incl me). He is failing his school year and lies constantly. She grounds him and takes everything away from him(incl his phone - he just borrows another one from a friend and hides it) but nothing helps. He had been telling her that for the whole term he had been going to extra lessons at school and he hadn't been to one. Once found out and all on track again, the very next day he started his c**p again! I have no more advice for my mom and i can see she is really hurting inside. He lies to your face - looking in your eyes!!! He does it with ease!!! Turning to my father is not an option because he is truly useless... Please i need help really badly!!!

I have a 15 yr old daughter who tried suicide in Jan. Invited a grown man to my house she met on the internet, lies, manipulates counselors and people. She feels the world revolves around her. She does not follow rules, is on 2 different medications and still acts this way. She is now in online schooling because she "can't handle" school, and I was always leaving work to get her for punching the wall, or manipulating the school counselors saying she just can't deal with school. Wrong or Right, she's on her last chance, next time I will have her institutionalized for her own safety, and for my sanity. Kathy, I feel for you!

It seems the older our children get the more independent they want to become and the more fun they want to have.

Stories like this really hit home with me. First of all know that you aren't alone in your parenting struggles. Have you tried speaking with him to see what is at the root of his anger? The use of drugs is always a clear sign that professional help should be brought into the picture. There are many, many resources here that may be of some help. Also I do offer free coaching consultations and perhaps I can speak with you directly.
