My son, who is 23, is refusing to go to work today. He works for the school system, and he keeps getting a school to work that he doesn't like.
I'm not sure what he did, but I heard him tearing stuff up in his room. He is cursing a lot. He is saying that he is going to sell all of his Christian books. He says that he just isn't happy and it is never going to happen. He should just become homeless.
He just called out of work.
I have prayed so hard for him, I just don't know what to do. I have tried talking to him, asking him how I can help and he just says that I can't and I am so fin perfect. Which surprised me because he has never been that disrespectful to me. He is saying a lot of hurtful things right now, but I know it is the mode that he is in that is causing it.
He stays in his room most of the time, hardly comes out of it.
I tried to use the, hmmm, not sure what to say, but maybe a discipline attitude with him, but it backfired on me. It just made him worse. I thought maybe that I am babying him and I need to be more firm with him.
I am so totally at a loss. He was talking about going to college for a while, but now he isn't doing that anymore. I think that would be so good for him.
