Here.

I'll add my voice to fish and guru. Also having a rough time. My son and I had a huge fight on Friday evening. I think he's embarrassed by it. He got upset with me because I offered him a piece of kiwi. He has this thing where if someone offers him food or drink, he feels like he has to take it and eat/drink it. Then he feels angry or paranoid. He can't politely say 'no.' Apparently his only two options were to take the kiwi or to scream obscenities at me. Saying 'no, thank you' is gay. Only gay men can politely decline an offer of a piece of kiwi. To straight men, them's fightin' words. Sigh!

So, like I said, he was embarrassed at how angry he got, and things had calmed down my Saturday morning. But he's still not thinking clearly. I'm feeling discouraged.
