Mostly–he’s been a pretty good kid who gets good grades, stays out of trouble, values his faith, and does a lot of volunteer work. He’s recently started going deeper, looking at how he treats others, which has been a problem with his siblings.

BUT…tonight he left me waiting a long time past when he asked to be picked up. Long story short, it started with him trying (apparently) to be funny and clever, but ended with him being outright disrespectful to me. I let him know this was no joke anymore. He wouldn’t let it drop, to the point it could only be called disrespect.

I am so frustrated with this sort of thing, in part, because I feel my kids are being influenced by my alcoholic family of origin, and the things they say about me, such that my kids seem to feel they can treat me this way when I know they wouldn’t treat their grandparents or aunts or uncles this way.

Please pray for him and for all of us.

Thank you.
 
Remembering you, your son and the rest of your family in my daily prayers. God bless.
 
Through the immaculate heart of
Mary, pour out your graces on all who are near death today. Comfort their loved ones. I ask this through Jesus Christ amen

Based on Ephesians 6:18-19
I pray in your name that when my children open their mouths they will boldly and fearlessly proclaim the mystery of the gospel and they will be protected by your armor as they witness for you in this time.
Amen

Lord, Jesus, my family needs your help today. We need your peace and
tranquility, an end to discord Give us strength and compassion to
understand each other, and the trust and patience we need to live
peacefully together. Grant that through the intercession of Your mother,
Mary, and St. Joseph, our family too may become a holy family, a
family that works together as one, a family that embraces peace and
love, a family whose members are dedicated to each other and to You.
Amen

Praying for your relationship with your son.

Memorare

REMEMBER, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, I fly to thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother; to thee do I come; before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.
 
St. Agnes, although you were only a child,
you believed that Jesus was always with you;
help us to remember that he is also with us,
and to remain true to his presence. Amen.

We add our prayers for you, your son, and your family, especially that all may find Trust and Peace in God’s Grace of Love, Hope, and Faith. Parental decisions are among the toughest we face, especially for single parents–often a certain relief can be found in compromises between the two parents.
You’ve shared your judgments, but not the actual events that concern you: “apparently” trying to be funny, “has to be called” disrespect. I pray you ask for help in assessing your judgments, as well as your goals and strategies. Have you considered reviewing each of your 75 threads here, post the conclusions you reached, and ask for comments whether others concur.

Prayer to Our Lady of Mental Peace

O Lady of Mental Peace,
Mother of Tranquility
and Mother of Hope,
look upon holyrood in this time
of weakness and unrest.

Teach her searching heart
to know that God’s Love
for her is unchanging and
unchangeable, and, that
true human love can only
begin and grow by touching
His Love.

Let your gentle Peace -
which this world cannot give
  • be always with her.
    And, help her to bring this
    same Peace into the lives
    of others.
Our Lady of Mental Peace,
  • Pray for us!
    Amen.
 
May God send His Grace upon your son to heed one of the most powerful commandments: Honor Your Father & Mother.
