Throwaway as he's the one who introduced me to Reddit.
My son came out of the blue the other day furious about how he's circumcised. I've never seen him so angry and upset before as I feel we have a pretty great relationship. I was naturally caught off guard and a bit stunned so I replied by saying "You're father was and I was told it's healthier." Unfortunately his father is not around and that just set him off even further, he started calling me names like: Ignorant, stupid, backwards and the like. Something he's never done before, something I'm not accustomed to so I just halted our exchange and told him to talk to me when he calms down and I expect an apology. It's been a week since that happened. He's completely shutdown, he's not going to school, he rarely comes out of his room except for food and bathroom, and every time I try to communicate with him, he just yells from his room "Fuck off cunt!" I'm deeply worried about him as he's never acted like this before. Anyway, during this week I did some research on circumcision and I feel like my whole foundation and knowledge as a parent is crumbling. As a parent I'm supposed to do what's best for my child and I feel like I totally screwed him over by having this procedure done to him. I've done my research, I now know I made a colossal mistake, but I also feel how he's been treating me this past week is completely unwarranted and unfair. I've tried to restart communication by telling him I was sorry outside his door, but instead of yelling I just got silence, so I also slipped him a note under his door and sent him a text message saying how sorry I was but I've yet to get a reply. How do I fix this relationship?
his penis was literally mutilated and he's upset about it? oh he's just being a teenage dick.
