Oh my God, I'm about to go crazy. My Teenagers are going to make me lose my mind. They are the laziest kids to me. It bothers me when they do not clean. They act like cleaning is a choice. They even feel like if they did not mess it up, then they should not clean it. I never taught them that. Trying to get them to clean up is like trying to get a dog to walk on two legs. Teenagers and their mess can be so annoying that I can not even think straight. If the kitchen is not clean, their not eating. If the basement not cleaned, then they can not do their laundry. These are just some of the things I do, But they seem not to work. My teenagers are all big enough to know what cleaning is.
Their Ages are 18, 16, and 13 boys. I do have a 19 year old girl and another son which is 21. My youngest is 11, and yes they all live with me. They all have the same father. We have been together for 23 years now. Unfortunately, he is not home with us, due to him in prison.
I'm thinking the reason why my teenagers are experiencing these adverse behaviors is because their dad is not in the picture. He will be home this year, and I'm trying to get them to straighten their acts. Their not going to have a chance to have any freedom. When their father come home he is extremely strict towards them, and there's nothing wrong with that he is their father. So that is another story!
I do not know what to do with these teenagers and my sister keep telling me to send them away like to Jobcorp. I do not know right now.
All I know is they not wicked teenagers, not affiliated with any gang, club members, they are in school, grades okay could be better, but their okay boys. Besides them, my children and I love them all, but they need some help with cleaning, they need disciplining. They need a consistent view of things for every day. If they do not stick with the same principles every day, there can be confusion, attitudes, laziness think about it. They do not know what to do. That is because there are no set rules. I had chores for them when they were younger. I'm thinking about my one blog title coping with my teenagers- the stress of it. Please should read it. That is how I feel when its not clean like I just want to leave, but I would not because my mother did not leave us.
I am glad when their dad is home. Which will be soon, then we'll see if they straighten up. They just need to clean up and keep it that way. We gotta love teenagers! I love mines very dearly.
