Stephan was the epitome of perfection, a model husband who remained unruffled even in the most challenging situations. However, you were constantly fighting the battle against your short temper, bearing the mantle of being stern to maintain the balance.

Your 16-year-old son, Alex, inherited your fiery nature, his behavior often testing your limits. He seemed to relish in pushing your buttons, deliberately baiting you to provoke a reaction, even at the cost of receiving detentions at school.

The tension between you and your son Alex had reached a boiling point. One day, after picking him up from school, you found yourself yet again in a heated argument. He had once again found himself in trouble at school, and you were at your WITs end. The ride home was filled with words exchanged in anger, and the atmosphere in the car was tense.

As you pulled into the driveway, you felt a mixture of exhaustion and frustration coursing through you. It seemed that your relationship with Alex was spiraling out of control, and no matter what you did, it felt like you were constantly at odds. The once peaceful home felt more like a battlefield with each passing day.
