My 16 year old son went nuts today and yelled at me and tried to fight his father.

Niether of us knows what's going on with him. Over the past few days he's had a very sour attitude with everyone and he's even behaved poorly enough for his teachers to call his father and I about it.I haven't had a negative report about him in years.I confronted him about these calls and his poor attitude of late and he freaked out. He jumped out of his chair, started yelling at me and even used foul language.I was so shocked by this. He's never been like this before. All in one moment u felt rage, and I was deeply hurt by the way he was speaking to me.As I was trying to ease the situation, calm myself down, and calm him down, his father walked in and had obviously heard everything.My husband is very good at keeping a cool head and remaining calm in otherwise emotional situations. He didn't yell or curse at our son. If I had to quote him, just to give you an idea of how this all happened, it went like this.My husband: Whoa! Tim, what's going on? Why are you being so disrespectful to your mother? You need to regain your composure, apologize to your mother and tell us what's bothering you.Then my son pushed him. I couldn't believe it. At this point I noticed my husband was furious.My oldest daughter came and tried to get my son to just leave and go to his room. When she got close he snatched his hand away and told her not to f**king touch him.My husband then pretty much told him that's enough and to calm down because he wants going to allow him to continue behaving like this.After that, my son approached my husband aggressively, and it ended with my husband holding mk y son against a wall, whispering something in his ear and sending him to his room.Our plan is to get him in to see a therapist because this is such an incredibly radical change in behavior.Do you have any guesses as to why he might suddenly start acting like this?Have you ever dealt with a child trying to fight you? via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/2xTK74E
