Verbal Abuse
The last couple months haven’t been good. My 11 year old son has high functioning autism. But lately the last couple of months we haven’t been getting along well lately like 90% of the time. My husband and my sister who lives with us were both working late today. My younger two sons were at friends houses, then my brother asks if I wanted to go out for dinner and I said sure, I haven’t seen him in 6 weeks. And my oldest son doesn’t like him and never lets him in the house (he didn’t give him something he wanted for Christmas so he’s hated him since then; he can’t seem to drop it), I tell him you don’t get to decide who will and won’t come in that’s your dad (it’s his stepfather but they consider them his dad which is totally fine) and I and aunts decision. I asked him if he wanted to go out to dinner with us and he said no. My brother gets to my house and I take my 2 year old daughter Scarlett with me, and then as we’re walking to my brothers car, he comes barging on the porch screaming “what do you think you’re doing mom? She can’t go anywhere with him, even when you’re with him, bring her back in this damn house right now!!!” And then I said “Excuse me John, first of all you don’t talk to me like that, second of all I’m the mother you don’t tell me what to do with Scarlett.” (She has Down Syndrome and he gets easily frustrated with her since she doesn’t understand most things that a normal 2 year old would understand) I don’t trust him with her when they’re home alone, I started taking her everywhere with me when ever my husband and sister aren’t home. After 10 minutes of bickering he finally went back in the house. I just got in the car and broke into tears for like 20 minutes. Then I come home and it’s been nothing but chaos with him. I’m just at my breaking point, therapy isn’t working, medications aren’t working. I just want my sweet boy back.❤️
