Learn English – the meaning of “I’ve had it with [sb.]”

meaningphrase-meaningsentence-meaning

I read the script of the film "Terminator-2" (here is the script) in English and saw a lot of unknown words and phrases.

One of them in a dialogue below:

WOMAN: …John? John! Get in here right now and clean up that pigsty of yours.

          John's friend TIM, a thirteen-year-old Hispanic kid, watches as John replies by turning up the volume on the boom box.
Janelle gives up with a SLAM of the house's back door.

TIM: Your foster parents are kinda XXXXX, right?

JOHN: Gimme that Phillips right there.

………………… HOUSE – LIVING ROOM …………………

          Janelle storms into the room. TOD VOIGHT, her husband, watches
sports on the TV. They're both in their thirties. Middle-class
working stiffs.

JANELLE: I swear I've had it with that goddamn kid. He won't even answer me. (neither does he). Todd? Are you gonna sit there or are you gonna do something?

I don't understand what "I've had it with that goddamn kid" means. "I have had" – is present perfect. But I don't understand the role of PP in this sentence. Is this some common expression?


P.S. I speak Russian, so it would be great if you write some examples in Russian for better understanding

Yes, it's an expression.

Based on my search, it's slang.

I've had it!

expression of complete frustration when one has reached the end of his tolerance
