The entire way home Middle Boy screamed at me.
I am a liar. I don't do ANYTHING to help with communication in our relationship. I don't put forth ANY effort in the relationship. I don't take responsibility for my actions. All I do is apologize and then I wait until after he is mad and I have done something wrong.
When I make consequences it is always something he cares about and it is always when he is mad. He doesn't care about consequences anyway.
When he stopped his rant I asked him if I could ask him a couple of questions without him exploding. He agreed. I asked what he does to show responsibility for his actions and what he is doing as his part of improving communication in our home.
If I don't know then I need to figure it out. Hmmm....I think that would be not much.
He is going to document every time I have told me some bull s*** and then on the day he "happily" moves out he is going to give me the book.
He preached and preached about how a relationship needs three parts (from his therapy)....communication, honesty, and trust. Without those three it will fail. He said (and I know) he doesn't trust me. Why would he? Every other caregiver he has ever had failed him. In all honesty, I don't really trust him either, because I feel like he is hardly ever honest with me.
So....I asked him if we could sit down and talk about a better way to communicate when we got home. He'll think about it.
Prayers this starts getting better soon. It is exhausting to do this every day.
