Hormones.

S. was supposed to go to her mom's Wednesday night for a few days. S. had a sore eyelid and I ended up taking her to the Dr. Wednesday night instead. S. talked to mom after the appointment, and asked, while mom is on the phone, if we could meet tonight (Thursday) instead. Mind you, I had already reminded S. that Thursday night is my group night. I said something to the effect of "sure, I'll have to miss my group, but I'll take you." S. gets back on the phone and says mom will pick her up instead. Cool, I think, she owes me at least one anyway.

No further issues regarding plans until this evening.

S. sends me a text about 4:30 saying she's been picked up already and for me to call later. I'm surprised that she's picked up already, but no worries.

Around 5:30, I call S. who almost immediately launches into a full scale demonic possession about how selfish I am for wanting to go to my group, for making her feel bad about wanting to see her mom, and I don't know what the heck all. I tell her I'm hanging up because my anger is rising, I don't want to continue the conversation right now and I hang up.

Around 6:30, I call her back and try to explain rationally (my second or third mistake at this point) that I think she's being unreasonable. Now I get unloaded on because I didn't want to continue the earlier conversation. "You never want to talk about it at the time." I try to explain that, no, I didn't want to talk about it at the time because I was getting f*#%ing pi&&ed, and I needed to cool down. Not good enough. She hangs up.

Ok, that's my memory and the condensed version but it's pretty darn close to the actual course of events.

Really, if I wanted a wife, I'd go get one. I don't need my kid to try to fill the shoes of one. Even is she is pregnant and hormone imbalanced.

Hi, I'm Dad and I'm the father of a pregnant teen. Thanks for letting me share.
