DH please be consistent....
So tonight DH gets all worked up about kids and chores. He says he's annoyed and I know what this means! He's found some reason to get upset with BD14, as usual! He says he's tired of kids doing nothing and that BD stood there and watched while he did dishes. Funny thing is I am the one who usually does them but tonight he did and he bitched.
SS14 was playing video games but that was ok as usual. BD unloaded the dishwasher as that is her "job" and SS does the trash once a week. Last night he didn't do it so of course I did and DH knew this. He didn't say a word to SS. funny how that works!
I have pretty much disengaged from SS and that's why I said nothing to him about the trash and besides it wouldn't make a difference if I did. Today BD did her chore without being asked as it should be but she still lands up annoying DH. then he was short with her the rest of night. SS14 played videos nonstop. Didn't even shower after having 2 a day practice today.
I think DH was upset with me because I told him SS breath was horrible! I could smell it in the car while he was talking so I rolled down the window. Ha! My kid brushed her teeth and showered after practice like always and yet is still on the shit list.

Yup, been there, done that.
Yup, been there, done that. Know what I did? I didn't ask my SK's to do what's expected of them. I asked my DH to do what was expected of the SK's.
"DH, we all know the rule in this house is no food in the bedrooms. However there are chips and cookie crumbs all over the floor in the SK's room. You need to go up there and clean their room, including vacuuming. If you don't want to have to continue doing this every week when they leave, you need to have a talk with them. Thanks!"
or
"DH, could you please put those dishes in the dishwasher? Apparently the SK's forgot and just set them by the sink with food still on them. Thank you!"
Mind you, my DH HATES doing housework of any kind.
works like a charm.....
Doncha just LOVE "ye olde
Doncha just LOVE "ye olde Double Standard?"
I've had a whiff of that myself. GG has a TERRIBLE time finding anything good to say about Awesomeson, yet will always make a HUGE effort to find some microscopic non-existent flaw or try to "show him up."
:sick:
Yet GG's own spawn are heading for AIDS/drug addiction, Preggers Welfare Queen and Jail in that order.
