Drama


My elder son is an egocentric person. The world is supposed to revolve around him and everyone and everything should follow and bend to his wants and whims. He is a drama king as well, exaggerates and magnifies things out of proportion.

Unfortunately, his sense of responsibility and time management skill need a lot of improvement, but being egocentric, he thinks he is perfect so there is no real effort to change.

He has rather short fuse too, and lacks anger management. In anger, he can say seriously nasty and hurtful things. And he shouts a lot.

My wifey loves to watch drama, primarily Korean and Chinese dramas lately, she can go through them incredibly fast. Being a mother, naturally she cares about her children, and their shortcomings grated her. Her fuse is not very long and her voice volume is not low.

The attitude and behaviour of my elder son often causes blood to boil, resulting in heated drama between him and his mother. To be honest, I often feel like slapping some sense into him.

Anyway, I was woken up by the shouting match downstairs this morning. Another drama, one of the many reoccurrences. At times it feels like it's a daily thing, often it's a few dramas in a day.

This will not change until someone changes, either the son starts to behave, or we no longer care about him.

So my simple, quiet and peaceful life is ever eluding. Instead, I get these dramas.
