No Comments! Be The First!
What should be done in this completely, way out of control, insane situation. Please.help.
First of all, we have ten people in the family- 2 parents, 8 kids. The girls are 8, 11, 13 and 22. The boys are 10, 14, 16 and 21. The two adult children live here because we have a big house, and we want them to. The girl is in college and the boy works.
Anyway, the two teenage boys(14 and 16)- are completely terrible, demonic BEASTS from hell. They constantly beat the younger kids to death, curse, scream at the top of their lungs, break windows, doors and furniture around the house, throw trash and food on the floor and refuse to help do anything, and take money all the time to spend on whatever they want.
The 16 year old is refusing to go to school- We’re trying everything and he just won’t go. He also stopped talking to his mom, his 22 year old sister, and his 14 year old brother- he completely cut them off. He beats up his 11 year old sister on almost a daily basis for no reason at all(for example, if she tries to eat ice cream and he thinks she’s eating too much), and she is a really tiny little girl- the size of the average 8 or 9 year old.
The 14 year old is ALWAYS screaming, fighting, cursing at his mother and oldest sister, throwing huge temper tantrums, and then begging for more money to go out to sports games and camps, and buy video games. He always gets what he wants. If we try to punish him, he will punish us- he will hide the car keys, pop car tires, smash all the windows, etc. until we give back his stuff.
If he’s spanked, he will say, ”That doesn’t hurt.”
If he’s grounded, he will steal money and go out anyway.or just go out without the money.
Yesterday, he threatened to kill his 22 yr old sister and called her a ‘freaking piece of sh**’ because she ate the extra slice of pizza. He had to be held down because he kept throwing heavy objects at her and trying to kick her bedroom door down.
The younger children are being influenced really badly by the teenage boys. The 13 year old girl and 10 year old boy also have major behavior problems, similar to the teens. The 8 and 11 yr old are constantly screaming and fighting as well, but usually because other people start with them.
Everyone throws trash on the floor and refuses to help do anything- no matter what. We’ve tried a chore chart, allowance, prizes, punishments, etc. There’s no way to keep the house clean at all when only the mom and sometimes oldest daughter do all the chores. The kids refuse to help change the bathroom garbage- they will throw toilet paper directly on the floor. They leave food, dishes, and candy wrappers in every single room, throw shoes and clothes in the middle of the floor, leave drinks spilled on the carpet, kitchen counter, etc. They throw furniture, toys, books, shoes, and everything at each other and then leave it on the floor.
What would you do if this was your life.
BellaRae, thank you.but did you read. I said the parents are trying all kinds of things and it just isn’t working.
