Poor poor me

Sometimes my son amazes and embarrasses me (and himself) with his outright rudeness. I wonder where I was when I should have been raising him to be respectful, especially to me...(if only I had the Crack Whore excuse). It goes to show, yet again, how pitiful my best efforts at parenting have been.
Then of course, there are other times when he dazzles me with his capacity for kindness and consideration of others.
I think I'm just going to go with bi-polar; it lets me off the hook for everything and I hear the medication fetches a great price on the street. Let's not forget I have private school to pay for.
