Here are some suggestions that might help:
1. **Prayer and Reflection**: Spend time in prayer, asking God for peace and guidance. Reflect on scriptures that encourage forgiveness and love, such as Matthew 5:44, which talks about loving your enemies.
2. **Communication**: Try to have a calm and honest conversation with the boy. Express how his actions make you feel and see if there's a way to resolve the conflict.
3. **Seek Mediation**: If direct communication is difficult, consider involving a neutral party, like a family member or a counselor, to mediate the situation.
4. **Self-Control**: Work on managing your reactions. Techniques like deep breathing or counting to ten can help you respond more calmly.
5. **Seek Support**: Talk to someone you trust, like a pastor or mentor, about your feelings and seek their advice.
6. **Consider Your Options**: Leaving the house is a significant decision. Weigh the pros and cons carefully, considering both your emotional well-being and practical aspects.
Remember, it's important to handle the situation in a way that aligns with your values and beliefs.
