Ok - I'm about to rant. Feel free to ignore this as you've heard it all before and it has nothing to do with dieting (except for the impact that stress has on my desire to stuff my gob).
Why is my Terrible Teenage such a selfish little sh*tbag??!! For 18 years I did everything for him: sorted out his continual problems at school, managed to rescind his expulsion and frequent suspensions, be a shoulder to cry on, be taxi-driver, teacher, nursery maid, cook, laundry assistant and personal valet. Be there when he's lonely and completely ignored when he's not. Change plans at the drop of a hat. Take him all over the world cos education isn't all about what you learn in school, is it? Generally fill every possible gap in his life and mop up after every crisis and catastrophe. And now, when he has a chance to show a little bit of appreciation in just the smallest, inconsequential way does it turn out that he can't be bothered. Is it too much to ask that he spends just 5 mins out of his busy schedule of getting drunk, sleeping, getting jiggy with girls and, oh yeh, sleeping, to phone me or his grandma???? I've even sunk so low as to mention that she might not always be there and he still hasn't bothered. Hah, kids, who'd have 'em.
Sorry about that but, you know what, I think I feel a bit better! Love to you all. xx
