Teenage child saying ”I hate you” to parents
My 14-year-old son hates his father and I. We do not hit him, do not yell at him, treat him with respect, and still he hates us and does not talk to us. He always says that he hates us. He is our only child and we came to America for a better life but he makes our life miserable. I wonder if this is because I am a working mum and he feels that I have not much time for him? My friends tell me that this is a typical 14-year-old’s response. Is this acceptable, and what can I do to help him get through it? I try to do my best, but I need help and I do not know any Muslim family around us. Please help me and my husband.
