To be very concerned that DD2 is now telling lies about me to her form Tutor.

I know it seems like every week, that DD2 is up to something than she apologizes and says sorry. However, I am very angry with her now , I got a phone call from DDs form tutor telling me that she seen DD2 and friend Julie working round the town 'drinking' beer from a can with some 'undesirable' non 'grammar school' boys (expect to get flamed for that) on Friday night. They were both supposed to have been in the Cinema . The form teacher approached them and asked them what was in the can ( butter would not melt in the mouth) DD said the can was empty and 'would not ever drink alcohol' 'Lovely to see you miss ' . The form tutor was having nothing of it so pulled them both Monday morning , Julie admitted to drinking beer, DD still denied she had drunk any Alcohol. DD then burst in to tears saying I am throwing her out after she has done her GCSEs because I am moving to Cheshire and that she is not allowed to come. DD asked her form teacher ' can I stay with you miss for sixth form'.

I told DD about two weeks ago that we were moving to Trafford in July after her GCSEs and DS school year ends, she fluctuates from being ok to swearing and slamming bedroom doors. The main reason I am going is for DD2 and DS , to give them a better chance, there really is nothing for them on the Kent coast. The thing is I keep 'grounding ' her and taking 10% of her allowance of her , she then returns to being the loving caring daughter I know she is.

The form tutor has given DD and Julie a detention, Julie for drinking, DD one for lying. DDs form teacher is very concerned about DDS behaviour and why she is acting like a year 7 ( incidentally she was so focused in year 7 overcoming her difficulties) she never behaved anything like this. This is the reason why her form tutor is very 'fond' of her. The form tutor told DD that year 11 is 'not the right time' for this behaviour.

Why on earth would anyone need to delete a thread about Gordon Brown? Confused

someone tell me what happened quickly please!

ilovesooty · 21/09/2014 18:44

"We had concerns about this poster so we've zapped the thread"

DontDrinkAndFacebook · 21/09/2014 19:05

oh, is that it? No WW III on the thread then? how disappointing! There must have been something going on though, for them to look at it?

hamptoncourt · 21/09/2014 19:12

So annoyed I missed all this! OP you are "hilarious."

Can I just point out, in case it has been missed, that smokepole also posted this gem of a thread

As you "were."

smokepole · 21/09/2014 20:05

Thanks Hampton Court. The Jacob Dowdle thread . There is reference to it in this thread. I am a bit disappointed because I thought by now we would have seen, Master Dowdle on Big Brother, Towie or Chelsea.

It seems that he will have to except just University, but don't be surprised to see him presenting " Smash a Teacher" The new Channel Five programme beginning in January.

I do try to make things amusing, within serious posts and issues.

Ii lovesooty. It was the best post I have ever done. Well written ,logical explanations that made sense and factually correct . They gone on to Delete it A*S. Politics is the direction I want to go at level 2 and 3 with the Open University....

I dear I made some "discouraging comments" about my children's hopeful Alma mater's (Jacob Dowdle thread).

The pulling up of my use of punctuation marks and grammar seems to be a recurring theme Hampton.

Batshit crazy.

Chippednailvarnish · 22/09/2014 12:11

How the hell do I stop this thread and the Op's attention seeking ramblings from appearing at the top of my "Threads I'm on list"?

It's nearly been two weeks and I'm frankly over the snotty vacuous opinions on judging people on the type of school they went to, excuses why getting a job is impossible, not to mention the spectacle of undiagnosed SEN / autism being used as an ongoing excuse for unpleasant opinions. And don't even start me on the ridiculous tax avoidance / drinking with her Dd's tutor scenarios popping up.

Help me someone please!!!

DontDrinkAndFacebook · 22/09/2014 12:17

Oh come on Chipped aren't you just loving it really? In a weird way?

My first TMA for DD102.

In your own words, define difference and inequality, and provide an example of each on City Road.

The "and" coming after the comma is the work of the Open University , it shows that they don't understand grammar like me.

Chippednailvarnish. : How are you on the "Threads I'm on list, because there is no record of any posts from you?

Its good to hear though from new "Subscribers" . Enjoy....

DontDrinkAndFacebook · 22/09/2014 12:37

Are you honestly keeping records of which posters are on this thread?

Perhaps you are autistic after all….

Chippednailvarnish · 22/09/2014 13:15

10/09/2014 21:18

You're clearly not autistic if you have missed something so simple. In fact it just adds weight to my opinion that your use of undiagnosed SEN / autism is actually insulting to people who genuinely do have such conditions and just attention seeking / total fantasy on your part.

Dontdrink I'm afraid the insulting judgements on other peoples' schooling alongside the attention seeking use of autism is too cringe inducing for me. Give me Sharon and her glass of wine and then I'm loving it!

No "Susannah" It definitely "hasn't" Been.

Beastofburden · 22/09/2014 13:34

I don't recognise OP's behaviour as being like the SEN/Autism I am familiar with from my own children.

But I do think that she gives the impression of having significant mental health problems. Which are possibly just as difficult to live with, for those who do genuinely have them.

DontDrinkAndFacebook · 22/09/2014 13:40

I think you might be onto something Beast

smokepole · 22/09/2014 13:51

This is getting insulting now. My GP obviously thinks I have "probably" got Aspergers/ Dyspraxia hence writing a letter to the health district stating a probability of 90% of Autism. That is why I have got what is "limited Funding For Adults to undergo professional tests with specialists .

I am waiting for an appointment .

Beast of Burden if your Children are suffering with Autism , be very careful taking the Micheal about "Mental health problems" People who suffer from various forms of autism are more than 3 times likely to suffer mental health Problems as adults.

Beastofburden · 22/09/2014 14:00

smoke I am not taking the micky nor am i being disrespectful. Actually I am telling other ppl not to be dismissive of what do seem to be obvious problems that you are dealing with.

But you are not being respectful of others with autism and other disorders when you use that to excuse behaviours that are not linked to them. I have adult children with both autism and dyspraxia so I do know what I am talking about.

smokepole · 22/09/2014 14:09

A lot of you on here are no more than "bullies" who pick up who you think is week launch a tirade get a gang together who join in on the chosen target.

I could have toned down my opinions and views, "why should I" just so that I did not have to suffer what is Verbal Abuse . It is quite funny really reading the "bile" which has been constantly aimed at me by supposedly Liberal Left wing leaning "learned" people.

I have tried to back out of the thread, but every time I think the thread has died , someone comes back and posts a rude or insulting comment about me.

It seems to some this thread is a Red Rag to a Bull and draws people from all parts of this to come and have a look.

OP posts:
DontDrinkAndFacebook · 22/09/2014 14:15

Well unfortunately smoke that is the nature of a discussion forum. Confused

I don't think anyone has bullied you, you've had lots of great advice. If people have posted things that seem rude or insulting it it perhaps as a response to some of the things that you have said, which can come across as rude very dismissive of certain 'types' of people that you seem to consider beyond the pale. I know you have your children's best interests at heart but you could do well to learn a little bit of humility and diplomacy, especially given your current status, which is that of someone living on charity handouts.

smokepole · 22/09/2014 14:28

Tax Paid Handouts. How can my Families Money be called "Charity Handouts".

Yes I have got Mental Health Problems , That is why I am on 40 Mg Of Citalopram every day I have serious "Depression" .

Let's Assume that some how I could work a 37 Hour Week without having a break down every week. I would not be able to support 3 children on what I earned I would need "hand outs" Tax Credits to survive and support my Children. Perhaps My children might get FSM or Pupil premium. How offensive would that be, because I would be taking limited resources from the state when my family were able to support me and my children.

Oh god. Ok have I got this right?

OP's brother is going to be paying for her and her children, (what will you be contributing to this OP?) OP's brother fell out with his twin because she refused (quite rightly) to pay for OP's daughters schooling. Op thinks there's something wrong with non grammar school children and that they are undesirable? Op is also attention seeking.
