Prayer Card

Please pray that my middle son understands just how disrespectful he has been toward me today. We had a home health nurse show up an hour early and he comes stomping in making a fool of me because I left bathwater running. He talked to me so rudely I can't even believe it. Whatever is going on in his mind or life, I don't deserve to be talked to by my own children like that EVER! He slept all day yesterday and woke up raging for no reason. Demanding someone find him a match or lighter. I don't smoke and neither does my husband, but I eventually found a match. He didn't even thank me. Still angrily stomping around like I've done something wrong. His son is here and he didn't know what to think either. I greeted my son again after he came home from working, and said "Hi, whatcha doing? Getting ready to go somewhere?" as he was gathering some things. He said he was taking his son and spending the night with his girlfriend and her son (they broke up a couple of days ago because the young boy felt like his dad was paying him no attention, and the boy told his mother he didn't even want to be with his dad anymore, because he disappears for an hour or more, several times a day to have sex with this woman. When his little boy asks where he was, he tells them in ridiculously coarse language for the age he is. No wonder the boy doesn't want to spend time with his dad under those circumstances. Well, he's back to the girlfriend's house just now, after all of that had transpired. His son was so happy about the breakup because he was being ignored and he struggles to get along with the girlfriend's little boy, who's the same age. My son yelled at me that he was going to do whatever he wanted with his son, that he doesn't give a f___ about what his son says, and that he's tired of people trying to tell him what he should do. Ummm, no one even said anything to him about what he's doing or not doing. He needs to be aware of the rude, disrespectful and inappropriate things he's doing, though. Normally, people would demand an apology for his behavior toward me, at least. I'm happy if he is at least cognitive about it. That he has enough presence of mind to remember his words and actions. His son was just now crying hysterically because he had to leave from finally playing happily here with his same age cousin, and go back to the girlfriend's house with his dad and her son.
