Dsd1 aged 16 has ranted a number of times about how much she hates my car (and my previous car). It's too small, too low, I don't drive it fast enough or overtake enough etc etc. she's said all this in front of dp not just to me. I've waited for dp to say something and he hasn't. I've told dsd that maybe she should be thankful to get a lift in any car. She's ignored me.
So the last time it happened I decided I would never take her anywhere in my car again. So this morning I do school run for dp kids inc dsd1. All fine because I will take dp car like I usually do now. Dp asks me to leave his car behind as he needs a big car for something today. I say fine, but I won't be taking dsd1 to school then as she's so rude.
Quick as a flash he insists I take his car and "he'll borrow someone else's car".
So instead if teaching his daughter to be well mannered he will inconvenience himself and someone else.
Says it all doesn't it?
