Needed to get this off my chest
Another weekend shot To hell. I am SICK of every freaking weekend being upended and everyone in the house being on edge! During the week when DH is at work, things are slowly getting to the resemblance of "normal" SD10 and SD6 and i are getting along better, and SD10 and I are butting heads less. Until the weekend. Saturday mornings, I usually get met with a snarky comment from SD10, that I usually ignore then she starts in with the "gimmie gimmie gimmie I want I want I want" mouthy snotty ass attitude. DH or I will say something to her about it, and she is usually punished for it, but does it change? Hell no. Fifteen minutes later its right back to the same shit. (And no DH is NOT a disneydad, he actually DOES punish, and will back me up and I will back him up ect.) Yesterday was fine, until about 530, when DH found a half eaten candy bar and a half tube of cake icing, well SD10 fessed up to being in it, so DH made her eat the rest of it. (candy bar and icing) Fine, no problem. well, DH me and the kids went out for a little while, and SD10 had already been warned about her mouth and attitude, no sooner than we had got where we were going, she started in again. Smart mouth, attitude and the damn whhhiiinnnniiinnng (UGH! like my mom would say, cuss or cry, but don't whine) well, we came home, and DH told SD10 that when we got home, she was taking a shower and going to bed. We get home, I told SD10 to get in the tub, Lord you would have thought I'd asked her to cut her arm off. She starts SCREAMING "I DONT HAVE TO! YOU CANT MAKE ME!" That was it for me. I stepped outside, and let DH deal with it. HE busted her butt, and made her get in the tub and shower.
After she was done, she was still whining, so DH told her, "Knock it off, or you wont have _________ for supper and we will." well it continued, so, DH went and got something to eat, and offered to make SD10 a PB&J, her answer? "I wont EAT IT!" fine by me, whatever. DH told her "Fine, then you can go to bed without supper." My jaw DROPPED! DH ment business, and sent her ass to bed. Fast foward to today, DH decided to go do something as a family, well, SD10 starts in with her whining and mouth, and he tells her point blank, "Your not going" I told DH I would stay home, and he could take SD6 with him. No sooner than he walks out the door, SD10 starts WHINNNING again. (she didnt like her choice for lunch, PB&J) fine by me, I just sent her ass to take a nap. Right now, she is in her room, whinnnniiinnng "Im hungggrrrryyyy" well, you were given a choice for lunch, you decided you didnt want it, I aint a short order cook. Come tomorrow, things will be back to "normal" what ever the hell that is..........

Can I please go over to your
Can I please go over to your house, so I can smack the shit out of your SD10!?!
Reading your blogs and reading about your SD10 behavior makes me so mad for you and your DH. I can not believe she acts this way. When I moved in with my FH his daughter was 10 going on 11 and his son was 8 going on 9. His son was the one that always gave me a hard time. With being stubborn and running his mouth and being a crybaby. He is 14 now and he seems to be getting a bit better.
SD is 15 turning 16 next month. She was good when I first moved in but then puberty hit. There have been quite a few times that I have wanted to smack her across the mouth. We don't allow the attitude, the talking back, the making of the dirty faces and so on. Of course she still does it but she has consequences to deal with for that type of behavior. The one that REALLY works with her is the taking away of her makeup and flat iron.
Your SD10 needs some hardcore disciplining. Her BM not being in the picture is NOT an excuse for her to act this way. Maybe for the first few weeks BM was gone but man, get over it already. Life goes on.....Kids need to learn this from an early age. My skids have not seen their BM in over 4 years. We do not allow them to blame their behavior on their BM not being around. As a matter of fact, it is a blessing that they don't see BM. I would HATE my skids if BM was a part of their lives and an influence on them. So lucky she is not in the picture.....
This "I don't WANT to" or "I don't HAVE to" behavior from her should be beat out of her. No, I am not that serious but in a way I am. Kids like her should be raised with fear. If they were they would think twice before they decided to act like shit heads.
No the kids dont get soda, IF
No the kids dont get soda, IF they do, its either root beer or sprite, that it. And yes, they go to bed at the same time every night, wether it be weekend or weeknight, and ubring..... come on over! We do dicipline, (and not the "time out" kind either) and we are consistant with it. this child is rude, hateful and downright disrespectful. (if DH or I had spoken to an adult the way this kid does, oh HELL no, either one of us would have awakened years later, and with less teeth) DH and I had a LONG chat last night, and I flat out told him, something has GOT to give, because I am NOT going to structure MY life and the household around little miss attitude. Since I posted this, DH has come home, and lo and behold, SD10 has started in again, I am on my way out the door before I snap a loose my mind.......
Smofknowitall, I know and I'm
Smofknowitall, I know and I'm sorry if I came across as being crass and hateful I'm really not I'm just sick and tired of the bullshit. I actually just got back home I had to leave and be alone for awhile to think you guys are a LOT of help. DH and I are going to have a calm talk about this
