Earlier I was sat up stairs hiding as sd had come back from bm's in a foul mood. I hear hubby ask sd to do something. Silence for 5 minutes then he asks again. Finally he shouts sd looks at him and shouts back WHAT THE BLOODY HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM. Hmmm hubby says back in loud but not shouting tone that he is sick of her attitude and isn't doing anything for sd anymore. 
(my hopes built up at that phrase) any way when things calm down I go to see whats going on and I find hubby cooking sd a bacon sandwich and cleaning up after her cat again (been ill ment to be her job to look after). Then he fills her hot water bottle up and she's stayed up late on a school night again. Needless to say i'm up stairs hiding again before I say something i'll regrette. My god hubby would you grow some balls. Oh and for the record he asked her to clean up her stuff off the floor which is still there.

My ss11 has been just plain
My ss11 has been just plain mean and rude to me for years! My husband NEVER follows through with punishment so ss knows now that dad isn't going to do anything. I have taken a stand in the only place no one else works on, my kitchen! I know to some people this will probably sound petty but I felt I had to set some kind of stand for my self! when my ss cusses at me and calls me names his breakfast lunch or dinner what ever the next meal is becomes a bologna sandwich and a vegetable with milk! If his dad wants to cook for him while being cussed out that's fine but I refuse to do it now. I am the cook in my house no one else just me! I get a better response from ss now than I ever have. I know my husband wont follow through on a consistent basis so I chose the one area that I don't need his help to enforce! I know that this probably doesn't help you but if there's something only you do for her and tell her I won't do this when you're disrespectful maybe that will help! I only had to show ss 3 or 4 times that I ment exactly what i said before he realized it wasn't going to change! I know this hasn't solved any issues really but it makes days a little better for me.
It just really feels like she
It just really feels like she can do as she likes and there are no consequences. She gets bad reports from school and hubby and bm don't bother to punish her. Its pathetic. Hubby will shout sometimes when he's annoyed generally when he's stressed out at work, and threaten but in 8 years nearly I have only seen him follow through once. He then wonders why sd doesn't listen to him. Why she is rude, selfish, and has the common sense of a squashed ant well hubby and bm it's because you have wrapped her up in cotton wool and have been so wrapped up in competing in who is the better parent you actually forgot to parent. Just pee'd off and still can't see any light at the end of the tunnel.
