Have your teenagers ever hurt your feelings?

I know I’m probably being too sensitive but I’m having a hard time with this. I need to teach him and not take personally what was said. There’s lessons about forgiveness here but right now I can’t really talk to him without getting emotional.

Buckle up Littlebittypretty, it gets worse when they get older. The worst is when they are just living their lives, the lives you set them up for and you don't even cross their mind.

I’ve got one out of high school now. It’s really hard. I miss my babies😞@Steve42

@LittleBittyPretty1 I miss mine to. One working on his phd in physics, one their masters in programing, and my baby is a junior in college. Even when they come home, they are off visiting with their friends. Separation anxiety is a thing.

Hugs to you❤️@Steve42
The unkindest cut of all. I imagine there are few parents who never experienced that.

It hurts - but then again - I guess that's why they're called 'kids.'

Yup. Very true @Mamapolo2016

I don't know what was said, but I don't think you're being too emotional... Parents are expected to do a really hard job, and remain strong.

I hope you can resolve it with him.

It really hurt to see my daughter go from being "Daddy's girl" to someone who seemed embarrassed to have Daddy around!

But the good news is that this
did not last forever!

Hang in there. Based on what you have shared about your kids over the years, I know he knows you love him. 🙂

I know he loves me too, just grrr@DrWatson

It depends on what was said. It may have been said without thinking and not really meant, it happens I did it.

oh yes. No one can do your head in like a teenager
LittleBittyPretty1 · 46-50, F
I’m finding that out ☹️@ButterRobot
