How many temper tantrums does this make?? Just needed to rant.

Ok, this has been an exceptional trying week. First off, SD10 is now SD11. She was to have a slumber party but, because of her actions and behavior over the past several weeks if not longer has, lost that opportunity. I invited her MGM (maternal grandma) and MU (maternal uncle) over for cake and ice cream on her actual birthday. DH couldn't be there (didn't want to be there because of MGM and MU). I decorated with balloons and streamers had presents sitting out and cupcakes. She was surprised to see the decorations, but she didn't say thank you or anything else.

Another day another temper tantrum from SD10

Ok. It's 8:20 p.m. Tuesday night and I have been awake since 2:00 a.m. Finally by 6:30a I was starting to feel very drousy and sent a text to my SD15 saying "I did not get any sleep, so please do not wake me. Just lock the door when you and your sister leave for school." My SD15 is a wonderful great. I remember last looking at the clock at 7:15a and then I was out... for about 10 minutes when I started hearing crying from SD10. I chose to ignore because I thought she was crying because she woke up late and would not be ready for school on time.

And the Fun Continues

Last week I contacted SD10's teacher to let her know that we were having problems at home and to please let me know if anything was going on at school. After we exchanged a few emails, she and I talked in person. I found out that SD10 had been antag0nzing several classmates. The classmates then retaliated back which caused SD10 to cry. I explained to the teacher that a situation happened last year between SD10 and a certain classmate. The teacher then told me that this past incident was with the same student.

I need to vent again

My SD10 is driving me absolutely crazy and my DH is no help. I tell him that she needs discipline and structure. He lets her do anything she wants and is inconsistent. The other night she had a temper tantrum and refused to dress herself. She's F*NG 10 going on 11 and SHE REFUSES TO GET DRESSED??!!!! GIVE ME A F*NG BREAK. I chose to ignore the situation and was talking on the phone with my BFF when DH comes storming into our bedroom yelling like a crazed loon screaming that I should help him. HELP HIM??!!! HELP HIM DO WHAT??!!
