My 15 year-old granddaughter arrived today for a few days - currently she's bingeing on Dynasty on Neftlix.

I'm half watching with her - it's dire!

Who knew there was a modern-day Dynasty!

Revising for A levels today.

My 15 year old is watching friends on Netflix and colouring in. She had a new colouring book and alcohol markers for Christmas.

MumChp · 27/12/2024 16:22

Nothing...
She has pent most day in bed watching Disney+.
I don't blame her.

KurtCobainLover · 27/12/2024 16:22

Mine is watching modern family whilst supposedly tidying her room (which means the mix of clean and dirty clothes on the floor will be moved to the dirty clothes basket for me to wash….)

Sitting next to me eating cheese and crackers while we watch Notting Hill

Today my 14 year old went to the gym, did some xmas.lego set and is watching now some trash. Gilmore girls I think

My 16 year old has been to the shops and out for lunch with me. She's treated herself to some new books. Currently eating a chocolate orange, stroking the dog and reading the first one.

Itsmyluckyegg · 27/12/2024 16:28

She’s been revising for A levels like a PP, although has nipped to the inpost locker to send a couple of things. She will be making her own tea when she comes in then will carry on with the revision.

SharpOpalNewt · 27/12/2024 16:29

Went to the gym with me, now watching something in her room.

SpikeWithoutASoul · 27/12/2024 16:29

My 13 year old DD is sitting next to me drinking hot chocolate and watching friends for the millionth time. Her dad has been sent upstairs to hang her new fairy lights.

Manchesterbythesea · 27/12/2024 16:33

DD16 is here with me watching Joy on Netflix. We are having a nice chill day after almost a week of madness.

JaninaDuszejko · 27/12/2024 16:34

The 15yo is revising for GCSEs (mocks as soon as she goes back to school) and 16yo is doing A level work.

BlackChunkyBoots · 27/12/2024 16:36

I don't know. She's at her Dad's for Christmas.

myladyjane · 27/12/2024 16:39

One is reading/listening to music. We are in the same room under blankets with the odd grunt of communication- excellent

The other is in her room after a 30 min shower so I assume doing things to her hair/skin. She has taught herself to play Blackbird on the guitar today in an effort to woo Neil the Baby who she now follows on instagram

BearSoFair · 27/12/2024 16:41

Listening to music and drawing the cat - I can't see the sketchpad but I'm guessing it's the cat based on the repeated kissy noises to get her attention!

LaPalmaLlama · 27/12/2024 16:42

Putting her jewellery in Silver Dip to avoid doing revision.

IbizaToTheNorfolkBroads · 27/12/2024 16:45

Reading a stack of books whilst eating a selection box and googling for discounted converse hi tops.

About 40 years ago I d have been doing much the same without the googling!!

TwinkleLights24 · 27/12/2024 16:47

She’s out shopping and having food with her friends.

TennisToday · 27/12/2024 16:47

14 yr DD announced yesterday that she was not socialising at all today. So she’s been in her bedroom tidying and putting away her new stuff, while also reading her book. She loves reading. She has not got dressed. I’m jealous as I’ve been working all day

My 15 year old is watching friends on Netflix and colouring in. She had a new colouring book and alcohol markers for Christmas.

My DD got these for Christmas too and has spend the past two days colouring in.

Changed18 · 27/12/2024 16:48

She went surfing this morning which has been a great excuse to spend the rest of the day sitting in bed watching something (YouTube/netflix) on her iPad.

Moonflower12 · 27/12/2024 16:49

She's been tidying fucking around in her room. Now she's come down to help me tidy fuck around downstairs.
She's wearing her new jodphurs to warm them up for her lesson tomorrow, apparently. She has also been to feed our ancient Pony-Beast.

TheMousePipes · 27/12/2024 16:51

The child has been building her book nook this afternoon - she’s now watching some shite on her phone whilst her dad finishes watching something on the TV - then we’re going to watch Harry Potter together and eat sausages.

BrighterLater · 27/12/2024 16:51

One at work (extra shift over Christmas), one shopping with friends, one in room pottering and enjoying Christmas presents.

thehousewiththesagegreensofa · 27/12/2024 16:52

She's been on a family day out with us doing something she doesn't particularly enjoy with good humour. We are staying with relatives and I have suggested she goes and chills in her room until dinner time.
