aarrgghhhh
dd (3.8) has a vile cold and is the grumpiest most miserable creature imaginable with me and dh (fine with everyone else
Yesterday morning and evening we had SO many tears, she took offence at everything we said or did and kept saying "I'm NOT your friend" adn "go away" and just being vile
Now normally I wouldn't tolerate this but I do feel I should cut her some slack when she's ill. I have tried being patient, loving, understanding etc but she is getting worse and worse.
Should I just leave it? It is impossible to reason with her, she bursts into tears at the drop of a hat so any suggestion of naughty steps etc will probably be full scale meltdown....
