Tattling
Too funny. So earlier we were in 2 vehicles- DH with SS12 and BS3 and I had my two BD's. When we get to our destination, DH tells me (in front of SS) "BS almost hit SS with the car door."
Me- Ok, was it on purpose or an accident?
DH- Uh..on purpose.
Me- Ok, so what did you do?
DH- Uh.. Nothing.
Me- Ok, well then why didn't you do anything? I wasn't there so what am I supposed to do?
DH- Boys, y'all need to be careful or someone's goin to get hurt
SS- I did get hurt!
DH- Yeah, honey, he did get hurt.
Me- Well then you should have done something about it. You're the parent. I wasn't there so I don't know what happened. You were there. Not my fault you didn't do anything. (walk away...)
really, so now my dh is tattling! Dh says I take BS side more often. I probably do but yes I do get after my son if he is at fault. I just think a 12 year old should also know better than a 3 year old. 11 more days...
So what did he expect u to
So what did he expect u to do? Ugh. I HATE tattling of all sorts. My ss is the tattlemaster. We constantly tell all the kids that the only time I want anyone tattling is if there is blood or something is dangerous. I know kids are kids and all tattle sometimes-but ss tattles for the stupidest things. My bs walked by a flower in our landscaping and the bloom fell off-ss picked up the bloom and carried it to my dh and shoved it in his face stating that none of our flowers had blooms anymore. Ignorant. He also tells on me. sometimes dh tells on my bio kids. I tell him the same thing you told your dh-well did u do something about it? I'm telling you. Oh, well if it bothers you you should give them some sort of consequence.
Exactly. What's even funnier
Exactly. What's even funnier is that BS is OUR son. So DH is his dad! So here he has his two sons and he's telling me, who wasn't there, to do something about it. Please. He just didn't want to be te 'bad guy'. He's cool dad to SS and right now DH is enjoying that BS is a 'daddy boy'. He isn't the disciplinarian and usually just backs up what I say. But since I wasn't there...plus I try to stay the least bit involved as possible when it comes to SS. Anyway, I laughed in my head and thought some people here might laugh too!
I laughed when I read this.

Ha! My BS really is tougher
Ha! My BS really is tougher and rougher than SS. He made SS cry last year! The thing is, though, that BS doesn't always 'start it'. SS provokes BS just so BS can get in trouble. Sorry, not this time!
Well like I said before this
Well like I said before this was ss and OUR bs!! So dh is dad to both boys! He just didn't want to 'pick sides'. It is so irritating.
