WW5 in our home
My sd who is almost 21 came back to live with dh and I after she got in to a bunch of trouble with her drivers license and we agreed to help her out but she had to have a job to pay her own bills that we would help her with. Since she has been back her mouth and the screaming is getting out of hand. She is constantly yelling at us or bitching about everything. Today she called dh's cell (DH and I work together at the same place) he wouldn't answer it because she had texted asking him if she would go buy her her lunch for work. DH refused well she called his phone and so I answered it. She wanted to know if dh could go to subway and buy her lunch and I told her no that we had to be back at work(we go home for lunch) she said can't you stop at the gas station and get me something and I told her no. She had time to get her own lunch packed for herself this morning. She then got very rude with me on the phone. I told dh that when she gets home from work tonight I am going to say something to her about her disrespecting me on the phone and how it will no longer be tolerated. I also said if she doesn't like it she can get out of our house.
Yup, she needs to follow the
Yup, she needs to follow the rules or GTFO, my SS lived w/ us for a year at age 21 and for shorter periods before/ after, the rules were always crystal clear, and it wasn't HIS house, it was OUR house. (well, mine anyways lol)
That's pretty sad. My 10 year
That's pretty sad. My 10 year old got up this morning, looked at the school lunch calendar, realized it's bean burrito day, and made her own lunch. AND brought it to me to make sure all the food groups are represented, and they were. Maybe when your SD gets home you should get out the mayo and the lunch meat and bread, and show her how to make a sandwich. You know, like you would show a 6 year old.
Oh yes the law will be laid
Oh yes the law will be laid out tonight again for her. We aren't paying her fines she has to give us all of her money that she makes at her job and then we use it to pay the fines for her. If she moves out we won't even be doing that because she made this mess she can fix it. She has always tried to make me feel like she was the adult and I am the child. When I bring up out disrespectful she was on the phone I am telling her that I am going to be disrespectful to her if she continues this pattern as you get treated how you treat others and I am not doing anything for her again.
Good for you! If she can not
Good for you! If she can not be respectful to you in your own home she needs to go - period.
Well I spoke with her last
Well I spoke with her last night about everything and explained to her that if she spoke that way again she could leave the house and I would be speaking to her that way. It is uncalled for she tried to yell and I never raised my voice but kept telling her she needed to calm down and speak like an adult. She tried bringing up things about her half brother who is living with us and I said that is not what I am talking to you about at this time.
She called dh this morning and begged him to give her a ride to work since it is raining and he did. I told him he is not giving her a ride every day unless he is going to give sd's half brother a ride as he walks to school in the rain with no complaints.
