DD 15 AND DH CLASHING.. :(
| Tue, 01-30-2007 - 8:43pm |
It has been some time since i posted here but i wanted to throw this situation out to get some thoughts... My dd will be 16 on Thursday 2/1/07..she rarely gives us a hard time about anything...she has the ups and downs of teens but her grades are good and she dresses normal and i don't here her cursing but she will go on her snippy rampages especially w/her father. Sometimes she speaks about him in a really hateful tone. example tonight my dh is opening a new business and works full time contracting during the day and evening at the new business trying to get it ready to open soon. he tries to involve our two children in the clean up and set up...he really needed help tonight and my ds and his friend were meeting my dh there and when my dh came home he seen my dd was STILL on the comp which i am sure she was on all day cuz she stayed home sick today too...not sick sick but not feeling good this morning and was ok tonight...so he said , ok dd lets go, she said w/a snip "go where".. he said over to the building to set up some things...and she said "Well, you did not ask me"...in other words she was telling him...don't tell me to do something, ask me. my dh just bought her a used car and put in $3,000.00 to get it fixed and ready for her 16th birthday...really does alot for the kids $$ wise and taking them places..my dh works hard all day and even when he gets home, it does not end, paperwork, etc...things blew up...he yelled at her and told her to get off the computer...well, she did not respond and evidently did not get off either...he blew up and told her she was grounded and took her cell phone...he left to work w/my ds...she was so pissy, she went into her bedroom and i went in to talk to her and told her that her tone and response is what got her in trouble...she flipped and was saying "he does nothing" "when was the last time he washed dishes" "when was the last time he helped clean the house" is it because he thinks he's "KING" ... she went on and on and said that I work too and she works on the weekends and we still have to clean...i just don't know what to say to her anymore...i see part of her point but she had no right disrespecting my husband /her father like that...she has been really rude and snotty to us all lately. i keep telling her she is going to get herself in her own trouble...she said to me"i'm just waiting to move out of this house, you think i don't have friends that will take me in and their parents aren't like him"...my husband would be crushed inside if i told him...and he will not show it, he will get mad and probably not give her the car .. cancel her cell, cancel the comp..hit her hard where it hurts...what do u guys think??? and i am having a sweet 16 party for her...i work full time..i asked her to clean up a little bit every night...she hasn't lifted really a finger..she washed the dishes but that's it...i don't like her like this. she also says i should stand up to him and not let him say what he wants and he always thinks he is right...ANY ADVICE PLEASE..
