SD11 knows that nnnadddddyyyy is going to get his (our) tax refund soon and he always buys her expensive gifts and takes her where she wants to go when there is extra money and boy is she ever sucking up...absolutely pathetic. It has really been nice the last couple of weeks...she avoids being home as much as possible...hardly saw her at all-so peaceful. Now that Nnnnaaaaaaaaadddyyy has mentioned the tax refund (dumbass) she hasn't left his side telling him everything she wants and everywhere she wants him to take her. I am looking forward to the money being gone and then go back to her not being around much and having peace again for a little while until its her birthday... Wink

Amazing how they can smell money, huh? SS14 has mentioned tax return money, as well, wanting to know our plans for it. What makes him think that's any of his business?

Jesus, how do these kids even know these things? I never knew about tax return money until I started working at 16. Even then my parents still claimed me and they sure as hell weren't using it to spoil us. Sometimes I'm soooo happy that DH is a cheapskate and has already designated how much will go to bills and how much will go to savings leaving a big fat ZERO for splurging. I wouldn't have it any other way.

SD11 is the nosiest person alive and thinks that everything we do she needs to be a part of...she actually questions something as small as seeing a cup from a restaurant in the car and then throwing a fit that she didn't get anything or even a soda bottle in the car and asking why she didn't get anything or didn't get to go (even if she wasn't home at the time)...she thinks that everything is hers including all personal things of mine or my son's...this is because MIL and Dh mostly and probably BM have instilled in her head that she was there first and that she is always gonna be first...a point that she really takes to heart. It helps to make selfishness and entitlement be a part of what what makes her the "sweetheart" she is.

Where did you get that? How much did it cost? I hear those two questions from SS14 all the time. My typical responses: none of your business, not your concern, don't worry about it. SO can't seem to do that, however. He'll either tell him, or worse, lie about it and say he bought it used, got it from a friend at work, always had it. It makes me nuts!

Wow. That sucks. The SD's are definitely nosy and are VERY concerned about what we do when they aren't with us. "You went to the movies WITHOUT US?!" "You went out to dinner WITHOUT US?!" "You continued living your lives WITHOUT US?!?!" Keep in mind they are only with us every other weekend. I guess we are supposed to just sit quietly until they return. I don't know if I would be able to stand it if they started asking us how much stuff costs.

Of course DH would probably tell them because he is of the mindset they are entitled to know. This weekend is SD5's birthday. SD9's birthday is in 3 weeks. Of course DH told SD9 she could have her presents early so on SD5's birthday he will be taking SD9 to pick out a birthday gift. He seriously needs guilty daddy counseling ASAP.

SD lives with us full time...doesn't go to her mother's unless there is something going on.
SD11 is the same way as yours...thinks that the world must stop when she isn't around...that we are completely distraught when she isn't around and our greatest joy is when she spends time with us :sick:
This is why she is stickin around clinging to dada until the money has come and gone and then she'll avoid our house like the plague...."it's so boring here! You never spend any time with me because you have a job...You don't ever take me anywhere!" This is the fuel of manipulation that usually gets her anything she wants.
