My 16-Year-Old Son Went to Stay with His Grandmother for the Summer – One Day, I Got a Call from Her

When my 16-year-old son offered to spend the summer taking care of his disabled grandmother, I thought he’d finally turned a corner. But one night, a terrifying call from my mother shattered that hope.

“Please, come save me from him!” my mother’s voice whispered through the phone, barely a breath.

Her words were sharp with fear, a tone I’d never heard from her. My stomach knotted. Before I could respond, the line went dead.

I stared at my phone, disbelief mixing with shock. My strong, fiercely independent mother was scared. And I knew exactly who “him” was.

My son had always been a handful, but lately, he’d crossed new lines. At sixteen, he was testing every boundary he could find. Rebellious, headstrong, a walking storm of attitude and defiance.

I remembered him coming home from school, slinging his backpack down with a certain grin that I didn’t recognize. “I was thinking about going to Grandma’s this summer,” he’d said. “I mean, you’re always saying she could use more company. I could keep an eye on her.”

My first reaction was surprise and a little pride. Maybe he was turning over a new leaf, becoming responsible. But looking back now, as I sped down the darkening highway, his words nagged at me in a way they hadn’t before.

I blinked in surprise. “You… want to go stay with Grandma? You usually can’t wait to get out of there.”
