SD16 snapped on DH during a phone call about her piss poor grades. She told him that 'my mom doesn't give a fuck about what you think so why should I?' Since then, DH has obviously been upset and has gone so far as to tell me he really didn't want her here this weekend.

He went to pick her up and when they arrived, DH told her to take her bags to her room. She told him she would do it later. DH repeated the request and SD16 ignored him. He told her she will no longer have her cell phone on her visits with us...she can call or text her mom in the morning and before she goes to bed, but he will no longer spend EOWE completing with an electronic. She had a full on melt down and told DH he had no right to take her phone from her. I told her she didn't make the rules in this house and to watch her tone. She lipped off to me (for the first time in front of DH! Finally!) and he ripped hard into her. She sobbed hysterically that she wanted to go home. DH tossed the phone at her and told her to call her mom. SD16 looked shocked and stalled calling for almost 3 bloody hours. I watched my husband cry at her complete lack of caring. All she said over and over was, 'give me my damn phone'.

BM arrived around 11pm and DH told both of them SD16 is not coming back under her attitude changes. It's a bittersweet victory. DH finally found his spine, but not is forced to see how truly selfish and narcissistic this monster has become. She gets to go home and I will be left to deal with him being upset and shutting down emotionally for the next few days.

I think I just heard him crack open his 2nd beer in 30 minutes...going to be a long night.
