quiet ! Whilst i have been off the boards my eldest son who was causing so many waves has moved out. I was really upset at first, but i am now enjoying the peace that has settled, and when he pops home for tea every few nights he is so much nicer. I even get a hug and kiss when he arrives and leaves. So it was for the best after all :-) Yvette

My son and I did not get on at all when he was at home, always arguing, but it was because we are so much alike! Then he left home, and although I felt at first that it was all my fault, it wasn't, it was because he was ready to become independent. Within a few weeks we bacame so much closer and appreciated each other more. It's what we bring them up to do Yvette, to become decent responsible people. Enjoy the new level your relationship with your son has reached.

Hi Yvette, glad to hear that! I will tell my friend what you two have said, she is really struggling at the moment with two teenage boys, so needs to know there is light at the end of the tunnel! Maz. XX

Hi Dont know your story but, one of my sons was a real pain in the bum at times, we were alway's falling out. It was great when he moved out, coming back for a meal or if he had no money in his electric etc. He did come back for a year, the first few month he was great then we started falling out again. He has now been away for about 5 yrs and we get on a lot better. His wife has to put up with him now lol. I think they all need to get their own place,even if just to try it out and realise that maybe the money they gave you wasnt such a 'rip off' afterall lol Marion

(((((((((((((((HUGS for Yvette))))))))))))))))))))))). Change the locks love... they do come back LOL. Jean x.

Maz, i was stunned when things started going wrong with my son earlier this year, it's been a tough few months with him, even so i cried like a baby when he left. However its all working ok now, we are talking like we used to and i feel i have my son back again. So tell your friend to hang on in there. Thanks Teresa and Marion for your comments, it's always nice to hear from a fellow survivor, lol Yvette

Hello Auntie Jean :-)))) I was daft, i told him to keep his key in case he ever needed to come home....but not to bring his dirty washing with him, lol I really should have known better, my daughter moved out at 18, came home at 20 for 3 months, and is still here 17 months later, lol. I really must stop feeding them ;-) Yvette xx

'Survivor' being the operative word here lol. Bless them, its all worth it in the end.

Hello Yvette Nice to see you...........now that your son has gone, btw glad to hear things are better. Do you want........... ALEX...................lol love Suzy :o) xxx

Hi Suzy, how are you? As much as i would love to take you up on your kind and selfless offer i regret i must decline and save Alex from such a fate as i have let David take his bed with him, lol :-)) Yvette

OH...........bottom.............lol Me OK, just having big prob with my left foot.........lol speak soon love ya Suzy :o) x

Yvette, I don't post on your threads very often hun, the only reason because I have no words of wisdom. But I always read them. I can understand in a way where you are coming from because of what one of my elder sisters has been through. But hopefully your son will turn out to be the soul of goodness that you have wished for him... Love Susie xx
