There is an organization that helps with kids. It is called Team Advocates For Special Kids. It is on the internet. They help parents and kids. They have classes too. I am 70 years old. My daughter just graduated as a LVN. Lots of tears. Please don’t give up. It is a lot of work. You are worth it🌹.

I understand. When I had back surgery, I was raising a teenager. She has a disability which I don’t want to share about. There were lots of disagreements. It is definitely very challenging when you are dealing with our own health issues. My ex was a Vietnam veteran. That is another story. I get it. Please take at least 30 minutes a day for yourself. “You can’t give from an empty cup☕️”. One day at a time. Today was awful. The pain meds were not working. I made myself lay down. Also took gabapentin. That seemed to help. Prayers your way 🌹

My eldest son takes advantage a lot. He’s also a teenager. He knows it’s difficult for me to keep on top of him about school and doing his chores. I hate getting emails or phone calls about how he is failing high school because I don’t have the energy to push him past his auto response of “schools fine”

No I do not feel like they are going to take advantage of me. I don’t tell people about my medical history it’s not there business. It seems like every one has an opinion about pain medications so I just be quiet.
