My friend had a sign that read, "Now I know why animals eat their young!" It will pass. We found with all 3 of ours that the summer after freshman year of college was THE WORST!!! They had had a taste of freedom, but weren't mature enough to settle back into the rules when back at home over the summer. Things always got better by sophomore summer. Hang in there...this too shall pass. We didn't kill ours, and now all 3 are employed, productive, responsible, kind adults.
