In this interview segment, a parent (Speaker A) recounts a series of escalating problems with their teenage son, Stephan. Stephan repeatedly violates school rules, being caught smoking in the bathroom and drunk on school grounds. The parent confronts him, leading to a violent, threatening encounter where Stephan yells insults, physically corners the parent, and the parent feels genuine fear for their safety. The parent considers calling the police, but Stephan flees the house and disappears for over a week, leaving the parent uncertain about his wellbeing. The parent expresses deep emotional distress, hurt, and fear about the possibility of their son not returning home, describing the experience as one of the hardest challenges they have faced.

Chapters

He gets in trouble so often that the principal and I actually have each other's personal phone numbers. Stephan was caught smoking again in the bathroom. He was caught drunk at school. So he came home, I confronted him with the information that I had, and he just got so angry.
And this was one of the first times I can say that I was actually afraid of my son.
He had me up against the wall. He was in my face yelling. He's calling me idiots, calling me stupid, calling me out my name, calling me bitches. One of the things that I never wanted to have to do was call the police on my son. So I went to retrieve my phone to call the police and Stephan just took off out of the front door.
So he ran away that way?
He ran away and he was gone for over a week. I did not know where he was. Got it. And I honestly, sorry if I get emotional.
No, you can. It's just, I get it.
I never expected that I would have to wonder if my son was gonna make it home at night. To have my own child disrespect me this way, it has been so hurtful. It has been one of the hardest things I've had to overcome.
I'm super sorry.
