My Princess is in so much trouble! She wanted me to take her to a the local sports store so she could get a backpack for her dance/basketball shoes. She has been using her brothers and I finally told him it was his she was using. SO before dance I was going to take her so she could get said dance bag. At dinner her and her brother were messing around I told her(she was hurting him) to stop it, stop it, stop it Got that? 3 times and I finally told her "I am not taking you to the store before dance because you are not listening, her response while giggling "SO I will walk" Oh helllll no You Didn't! I got very very angry. As I yelled at her for being so fresh she started to laugh at me. This got me so angry!!! I told her to get her butt up to her room because I wasn't sure how long it would take before I wanted to smack the taste outta her mouth! I told her No Dance , No Basket Ball and no cell or laptop! She brought me the cell and laptop then went to do the dishes. I got the "I don't know what I did, I'm sorry, I wasn't being fresh (Insert first tears here)" At this point I really didn't care what she said she was grounded!!! So then the tears start b/c she didn't want to miss dance. WELL I didn't want her too miss it either. She would have to make it up another night. I let her sweat it out then took her to dance. I KNOW I'M A SUCKER! But that will be it. She is grounded. I also informed her that she will have so many chores she will think a prison camp is a Gosh Darn Vacation! I own her Butt for the week and she will not talk to me like that again.
I don't know what got in to her. I guess I let too many things go with the way she talks to me sometimes. Last week she was super fresh to me via IM'ing and I let it go b/c you cant infer how you read a text vs. how it is implied. Having her talk to me like that last night affirms the fact that it's time to declare Mean Mom Law! She just dropped the proverbial straw(laughing at your Mom while she is disciplining you) that broke the camels (Mom) back!
AnyWHo!

OH! I am not a mother, and I, of course, was DARLING teenager.
I do remember my sister's award winning tantrums like this...
best.
birth.
control.
ever.
There are times in my life that I am sad and wish I had a daughter ~ and there are times when I am so damn glad I don't! hahahaha
I was a monster teenage girl...I would have gotten it back if I had one!!!
Good luck! She is a cute one though!!
All teens are mean.
You are a good Mama.
This too shall pass... :)
Let me tell you, 11 yr old girls are mean too (this coming from a mommy with said 11 yr old) so I can relate!! You are a great mommy and this too shall pass (for my sake, I hope so) :)
Oh no! I think all teenagers are mean. Aiden's only 2 but I'm already dreading the teenage years! And I agree with everyone. I think you're a great mom!
I'm messy too. I know how you feel.. But congrats on your re-financing!
I have 3 teenagers. All boys. I have really learned to hate teenagers. They use to be so cute now they can be so mean. But if they want money or the car they come really nice.
Thanks for the note on not having your parents around anymore. I do miss them everyday. I'm only 45 and feel like I'm to young not to have my parents around. Plus I feel my kids are missing out. But I know they are in a wonderful place and god needed them.
You have a wonderful blog too! I'll be back.
I don't even have any kids yet, and I talk to my mom and sisters all the time about how I am scared my kids will turn mean when they are teenagers... eeek!
I was a VERY good daughter. Especially compared to my sisters!!! :o)
And I feel you on cleaning the house. I am packing and wishing everything was cleaner, this is gonna take FOREVER!!!
Have a good one!
lol I remember that about refinancing. I'm also a messy mom, it's just our room though. I don't have the time to go upstairs and clean with a toddler running around. I figure when he's older my room will get to be clean too. They're in your house for like 5 minutes IF that, it's not too bad.
