My boyfriend is giving me a hard time about my son “disrespecting” me. Tbh I don’t even notice that he does it. I wouldn’t know how to change it bc I don’t recognize it. But I can tell it’s going to cause problems in our relationship. He’s Puerto Rican and big into respecting your elders. I’m white and my mom was never around so I don’t know how to parent. I’m trying to figure it out but as my son gets older I can tell I’m letting him walk over me but I don’t know how to stop it. I’m hoping maybe I can bring it up to his therapist and she can help me. Like family therapy.
