I know most parents know what i'm talking about here, i just have to blow off steam before i'm one child less.
My god damn daughter gets this queeny attitude and at these moments i just want to wring her god damn neck! now i know my kids are good and people always tell me what good and polite kids i have, usually in these moments i have to look around to make sure they are talking to me.:happysad: seriously, i begin to wonder at times if i went wrong somewhere. i'm not a demanding parent, i ask from time to time for them to help me by straightening up the place, but tonight its like, she lays on her high and mighty side snapping back at me or just pretending that i'm really not talking to her. shes been gone all weekend sleeping over at her grandma's place then spent the whole evening at her friends last night. so tonight alls i want to do is straighten up before the week begins so i don't have to do much of it during the week, but everytime i ask her alls she can say is that she didn't put that there or its not hers. so she continues to lay on her god damn side yelling back at me till i lose my temper and have to pretty much yell at the top of my lungs before she'll move. then she cries saying that she hates it when i yell at her!:sad: well fuck, what does she expect? everytime i ask her to pick something up she has an argument as to why she dosn't have too. i don't remember asking who the object belonged to, i just remember asking her to pick it up for me and put it away or throw it in the laundry room for me. tonight alls i wanted to do was smack her! so i'm just trying to blow off steam and bitch somewhere so i don't kill her.
anyhoo, i'm not a chorse kind of parent, i do pretty much all the cleaning around here, i usually just ask for help on sundays when the week is about to begin, usually she does as she's asked but just cause i'm PMSing she decides that tonight of all nights, shes gonna be queen bee. well fuck me if i now wanna be one child less and count my losses!:mad:
 
you need a hug

:hug2:

/me helps nymph tidy up her house


cheer up. It could have been worse.


of course my hugs arent as good as stardusts :)
 
Nymph, when we did shit like that my mom/dad just started taking things away. Grounded meant you had no privelages at all. No friends over, you couldn't leave the house except for doing chores or to go to school. no phone calls. No computer time except for school. No TV period.

We also lost items. I slammed my door once too many times. I went 6 months without a door as it was a privelage and not a right.

No yelling, just a very calm "Ok, fine, you're grounded for 1 week." Or a "Alright, then I guess you can just wear your old sneakers to school for the rest of the year because you just donated your new ones to the Salvation Army."

It didn't take long before we just did what we were told, when we were told to do it.
 
Write out a list of things that you would like her to do. Strip her room bare. When she starts accomplishing them, put soemthing back. When she doesnt, take it away again. Give her time limits and boundaries, and dont let her have the stuff back until she does it. That worked for me.
 
that..and/or say pick that up, if she starts an argument don't listen to her just do your thing. Ive lived with children since I was about 4-5years old until about 14..(my mom had a daycare center) and often I was the second mom not my mom..and then my sisters children and all..I know how pain in the ass children can be, but don't loose temper over them it's just what they are trying. And when you have done something ex put her in a naughty corner or that duztin thing..don't put everything back if she starts ti cry and yell and that.

you are doing fine nymph, everyone have those moments in their life
:hug2:
 
I do it a little differently, I let my kids argue thier point and I try to listen to them. I think this teaches them to think for themselves and form discussions, communicaiton skills....but only if they can talk logically...the moment the tears and "your a mean mom!" start, its off to the bedroom until they can talk right. I dont like ignoring them because it just feels wierd, I like my kids to know that I will always hear thier side, even if I disagree with it amd it is totally off the wall, then I explain why it is totally off the wall.

PS Omega: Thank you.

Look lady. If you're bitching about how much of a jerk your little kid is, then chances are you shouldn't be a parent anyway. :thumbsdn:
 
hey junior, listen up. i don't bitch about my life very often nor do i see the need in venting too much, my kids are good and i'm a good mom. i raise them on my own and going to school, so every now and then i need to scream, better in here. next time you wanna post a immature comment, keep it to B&T if you ever try that again, i'll give you a reason to cry, you little shit.:mfinger:

BTW sorry brit, he was out of line though.:D
