The phone calls are basically the same 'ur son is outta control'. I dnt know what to do. He has chosen to be homeless every time he comes around he's fighting. He talks to me wit good intentions before the conversation is done he always closes always wit he feels like someone want him to feel sorry for them to take him down or keep him from getting ahead. I don't understand. I just don't understand.

Hello Truely,
Welcome to the Parenting board!
You say that your family members know that you don't have control over your son's behavior... .Do you feel like they are understanding and supportive? What do you think motivates their phone-calls? Do they want to talk it over to support each other, or do you think they are trying to help your son, but don't know how, or something else?

They are afraid n ready to call police... .none of us really know what to do in a same since I can't speak for them I just don't won't no one to get hurt or hurt him but our stress levels are high with our own problems he does not understand no one owes him anything if he ask for something n it don't go his way then he does unknown things against u n that needs to stop
