I just heard SD10 crying in her bedroom, so I went back to check on her. WWEELLLL....
I spent over $1,000, and more then a week last year decorating SD10's bedroom. I had to completely rebuild one of the walls, and since I had no idea what I was doing (and no help in doing it!) I had to patch that wall a time or three.
So, when I went into SD's bedroom, I noticed that she had been tearing the patch off of her bedroom wall. The pretty blue wall, had holes and slits in it, outlined in vibrant white (from the base coat).
I've really had enough! So, Hubby comes through, and tells me to leave her alone, she's crying!
I am so fucking done!
She's having a "I'm the boss"
She's having a "I'm the boss" breakdown. She's having a hard night because she is being punished. We do family counselling, but tonight, I really feel like it is not enough!

Oh hell no! Do not spend
Oh hell no! Do not spend another dime on that wall or that room. She put holes in it, she must have WANTED the holes in it, and the holes STAY.
I took everything off her
I took everything off her walls, and desk. I made her pack her bag, and she can live out of that until she goes home. If she doesn't appreciate the room I made her then she doesn't need it!

I told her that next month she will be repainting the room by herself. I'll pay for the paint, but I think she is going to stop going out to eat until it is painted

I'd leave it screw that shit she wants to be a destructive brat add a few holes yourself and tell her if she wants her room to look like crap you'll help then take back anything you bought for her room you can and tell daaaadddeeee he can deal himself.

Yes. Her cousin and the cousin's husband have custody of SD10. However, we picked her up at the end of June, and she has been here, since.
Yes, there is something going on. Thursday was my birthday, and SD is pissed about that! She started crying and had to go into the other room, when my mom and sisters sang happy birthday to me.
This is a child who watches what I eat, to make sure that I don't get more then her. (I'm a diabetic, and have to eat 5 times a day. She is 4'8 and weighs about 160 pounds.) She also sneaks food CONSTANTLY
