Welcome, I'm new here too. I’ve found so much wisdom here for helping to sort things out
Thinking of your son - I have lots of poetry from around the age of 17/18 when I was dealing with the concept of black/white, giving/selfish and balance. Now I wonder if that perhaps it's part of what comes with dealing with the responsibilities of leaving childhood and becoming an adult. At that age your starting to realise your power as an individual person It’s natural to experiment with what that means.
I have taken that into consideration as well...I was a hell raiser as a teenager as well! I believe that I need to stop judging his behavior as well and forgive myself for my doing that! I need to work out my own issues, karma, he has his own to work through.
Also this quote, I'm realising in life lessons at the moment we don't have to let people drain us.
Q’uo September 3, 2006
""This energy that comes from the central sun into the sun of your planet, into the center of the Earth, and from there into the soles of your feet and upwards through your energy pipeline and out of the top of your head, is in infinite supply. As much energy as you can run, that energy is available.""
When you learn to get energy from around you, you'll find you have much more to give away. x
Thank you for the quote!

To develop this they need a degree of independence and puberty in humans serves to create this. If kids don't fight their parents, often parents continue to treat them as children forever.
These growing pains are hard for an individual and their environment. But they are far removed from service to self behavior. Puberty never made anyone evil. Wanderers tend to have an exceptionally hard time at that age. Ask anyone on this forum.
He will really have to figure these things out on his own. For you... Don't take it to personal, the things he goes through are not related to you as parents but a biological sequence. All you can do is see the good in him, keep him out of trouble and reward adult behavior.
Good luck with that
Thank you and I do see good things in my son! I believe that he is in the process of making positive changes and I need to stay out of judgement!
