The thanks I get for $180 hair cuts and a car for SDs 16th birthday

For doing nice things for this little brat, she has proceeded to:

Announce my pregnancy although we asked her not to and make it all about her
Lie to everyone about how abusive and awful I am
Tell SS that she is trying to provoke me to see if she can trigger pregnancy rage
Be lazier than ever, especially if I am sick with morning suckness
If i do have any pregnancy symptoms, try desperately to upstage me

I could go on...but I get even sicker just thinking about her.

I bought her a car. I cook all her gluten free bullshit meals. I do everything for this ungrateful little liar.

She makes me want to puke.

I'm praying I don't have a girl. She is making me hate girls.

Why are you doing all this for her?
I disengaged from ss12 about 3 years ago and even with disengagement, its hard.
I'm 7 months pregnant and ss12 has done nothing but make it about him and bring the drama every. single. day.
You're in for a long ride, I'm afraid. Disengage now & focus on you and your pregnancy - your baby deserves it.

EXACTLY...well, minus the gum.

Who's name is the car in? Seeing as in most states, a minor cannot enter into any kind of contract (including a contract for sale), I am guessing either your's or your DH's. TAKE THE CAR AWAY! There is no law that says we cannot take away non-essential items from our children that we have given them when they act like total snots! A car is not an essential item at 16...it is a privilege! The haircut you cannot take back, but she wouldn't be driving that car in my house! Of course, the way SD15 treats me, it will be a cold day before I even buy her something as small as nail polish!

Same here. Even the more upscale salon close to my house charges me about $100 for a cut, color, and blowdry!

Really? You tolerate this crap and you cater to her. STOP!!!! Stop tolerating it and stop catering to her. She can suck it up or GTFO!

Congrats on the new baby.

Sincerely,
