Today, my son threw the biggest fit in history about going to the dentist. He broke a whole stack of plates, overflowed the bathtub, let the dog loose, and kicked his father when he tried to calm him down. My son is 17. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my son is going through a rebellious phase. He's taken to wearing leather and chains, listening to death metal music all day in his room alone, and screaming at me in public places. He was fired from his part-time job for swearing at customers. My son is 29 years old. FML
Today, my son threw a temper tantrum and told me I “should have aborted him” and threatened to run away from home. Why? Because I nicely asked him to share his french fries with his sister. My son is 17. FML
Today, my son had a screaming meltdown because I told him to clean his own room and that I refuse to be treated like his personal maid. He’s 16. FML
Today, my 15-year-old son got so enraged at a fly that kept harassing him, that he ended up slapping himself in the face as it flew by him. This caused him to fall out of his chair, at which point he broke down into a mess of tears, humiliating me in front of everyone. FML
Today, my 14 year-old daughter threw a massive fit over showering. She dislodged the shower curtain rod and threatened to beat us with it if we ever force her to shower again. FML
Today, my son thought it was a good idea to spray deodorant into his mouth because he wanted fresh breath. This resulted in him passing out. My son is 17. FML
Today, my wife asked our 17 year-old son to clean his room. Following up, he lied to his mom and said it was clean. After rechecking his room, he began to throw things and I returned to find holes punched in the walls. I went and patched the holes, after which he immediately kicked more holes. FML
Today, I caught my son trying to punch his own teeth out so he'd get more money from the tooth fairy. FML
Today, I had to go into school for the third time this week because my son is claiming he's on bath salts and biting all his classmates. My son is 16. FML
Today, my 16-year-old son broke two of his fingers playing with Play-Doh. FML

Sounds like someone still needs his ass whooped! I understand he's 17, but if you want to act like a child than you should be treated like a child!

I will be surprised if he is even allowed to live there anymore when he turns 18. Tell him every time from here on out how much the parents are looking forward to booting him on his 18th birthday.

looks like you really raised a good there. so let me guess he was acting his shoe size not his actual age right?

I think people need to give OP a break. Some parents can try and try and try to teach their kids right from wrong, and some kids genuinely are THAT stubborn and won't behave. They could've done EVERYTHING to raise him properly and he still could've ended up a brat. He might have even been a good child (OP didn't say) and he's just acting out now all of a sudden. Also, considering his age, he's more likely fully aware of his actions and simply wants to act like a dick, which is by no means his parents' fault if he's gonna act like that, though they probably would then wanna take him to some kind of a counselor...

I agree. He is his own person. And was probably just acting like a dick. But he still should have gotten an ass whoopin'

Sometimes it is the way people are wired. I had a friend like this. normally a nice guy, had good parents and something normal to most people would set him off and he would trash his room.

Well sounds like he's reached that point where he needs to fight his dad ... And lose badly.

It sounds like your son is mentally unstable. In that case tell him your taking him to movies the matinee since I'm assuming the appt will be in the afternoon. Then by the time he figures it out he won't have the chance to destroy everything in the house. Afterwords Dairy Queen always worked for me since it was right next door to the dentist.

The good news is that you're no more than 12 months away from being able to kick his sorry ass the **** out.
