On 4 month old back and body

My son is 14 years old he likes to go out with mates but will go into woods and stuff exploring He’s a good lad but I like to keep track where he is as a normal good parent would do but he gets annoyed at me saying stop calling me as if I was in any trouble I would call you Am I being like a normal parent would be or am I being to much think it’s normal to have that love and care towards my child’s safety in today’s world but I’d like advise what are people thoughts bare in mind my son thinks he’s like 18 lol

How are we coping? I feel like it’s tearing my family apart.

It strips an entire day from our weekend as he leaves in the morning and basically doesn’t get back until the kids are in bed. Then the day after he’s too tired to engage with the kids so we actually lose a whole weekend because of this stupid hobby of his. So basically 2 whole weekends a month completely wasted for family time and then the other 2 weekends he spends watching live streams of the games he’s not playing 😭.

He complained about missing cricket one Saturday while we were on holiday, it was bizarre. We were sat on the beach in Tunisia playing with our kids and he just moaned that he was having to miss cricket to be on holiday 🫠.

He complained that he had to miss cricket for my brother’s 30th birthday, and my cousins engagement. He refused to go to my aunts 70th birthday because it was on one of his cricket weekends. I’ve had to navigate some Saturdays taking my kids to 2 or 3 parties because he outright says it’s more important for him to play cricket than it is for our kids to go to things they’re invited to.

For Christmas, we got my brother tickets to something at the Royal Albert Hall which he asked me to go to with him. I told him in advance and he STILL got ready to go to cricket, knowing he wouldn’t be back until after the show started.

It’s our youngest sons 4th birthday party this Sunday and he’s intent on playing on Saturday even tho I’ve asked him to be at home on Saturday to help me prep for the party because I know we’ll be in and out of the house as I remember things we need, plus the whole house needs to be cleaned and garden tidied for it.

I don’t know if I’m going mad, if I’m out of order, or what. Someone please tell me they’re in the same boat 😭 honestly I’m at the point where I would rather he just left us than I have to keep putting up with this shit!
