Hi, this is Kate. I'm 17. My life motto is 'Live Laugh Love', I really think those are great words to live by and I'm planning to have it made into a tattoo. I'm not religious but I love learning about different religions. I write stories based on things that have happened to me because sometimes I have days where I just think 'wow that sounds like something out of a book'. I've finished 3 stories and I'm about to start my first horror story..very exciting. I believe in fairy tale love...the kissing in the rain, staring at the stars on the rooftop kind of love..Why? Because I'm in that kind of love and its been the greatest time of my life. And it didn't come easy.
I'd love to help you with whatever issues come your way. I've been in relationships where the guy was too old for me, the guy was my best friend, the guy just wanted to get some. I've been the other woman but I'm not proud of it. I've been the girl who waits years to be with the guy she wanted.
I come from the type of home where everyone seems okay and then when everyone leaves its chaos. My parents should have been divorced years ago and I can't stand to be around either of them so for now I'm going day by day, only coming home to sleep and counting down the days until I go to college in August.

My child makes comments like, "that person on TV is better than you at ..blank.., "you smell, you are the ugliest, I missed my cat more when I was gone. He prefers to be with his dad more than me, he takes his side, and comments that he would save his dad first and a toss up between me and the cat. What is up? I am about as normal a parent as it gets. No neglect, no physical abuse, no psychological abuse, no other priorities. Are kids just mean today and tell you all they think or is he just displaying his "love" in an awkward way. By the way, I am the parent that says yes to McDonald's, walmart shopping etc. (link)

he's taking advantage of your niceness. sometimes kids also just say those things to see what your reaction is. and yes he is meaner than most kids. next time you're at walmart and he wants a toy, or when he wants to eat at mcdonalds tell him that when he starts being nicer and doesn't say mean things to you then he can have mcdonalds or a toy. i know i'm young but i watch Super Nanny religiously. you could start a good behavior jar or something. just find a cookie jar or something and tell him that for every day he goes without saying something mean you'll put a paper star in the jar. then if he gets to the end of the week without saying anything mean you can treat him to dinner at mcdonalds on Friday or something.
also, talk to his father about it and make sure he's not encouraging it. for example if your son says something mean to you and then goes to his father and his father takes him out to lunch or goes and plays a game with him, that would be encouraging it. his father should make him apologize for what he said.
if you don't watch Super Nanny you should start. they have kids like this on the show all the time. and if worst comes to worst you could always call her and have her come to your house.
but i really hope i helped even a little. good luck with everything. you're son loves you even if he doesnt show it.
