HELP-sofa stain panic

[starlightafar]

Hi please help!
My son has been pencilling on my cream sofa,
I thought the best way to deal with this was to use the eraser to rub it off.
The pink eraser has dyed the fabric.
What can I use which won't stain? It's on the arm as well so cannot turn cushion over.
Gutted. Everything nice I have the kids always break or ruin. Really fed up of it. Just want a nice house but they act like animals.

Kik thank you. Yes it's been mentioned.
I would call myself resilient. smart. funny. Before this.
Two years on from leaving and I'm a shell.
My children are better than me. Schools aware and helping. Health visitor. Mental health team.
I don't know if I will get me back )-:

I admire you

Thank you. I don't know why. Nice username tho!

Kim and Aggie used to advise hair spray for ink stains on leather sofas.

OOh that's one I've never heard!
Thanks but it's a fabric sofa. More fool me.

How are you doing OP?

Yes ok thanks q.
Have blocked you tube.
Back at school today.
Looking into bedroom change.
Doing rota today.
Will updaye later x

Well done OP. As the kids would say "You are owning this"

It will be worth it

I like the sound of new tough you - remember that boundaries rules and responsibilities ARE loving and will massively improve their lives too. Have a nice day OP.

Dr Beckmann foam carpet stain remover is the best I've ever used. And used it on stains on cushions and curtains too. £2.79 in Home Bargains.

OP, I have only read a few posts, so you may have worked it out by now,
My mother raised us alone for 10 years and she and I shared a room for a couple of years.

Thanks all for coming back! It feels so supportive!
Well I told them they will have to share and after 10mins theyd stopped moaning.
I hate conflict! So they will be ready.
I have agreed with them that rather tsn give them treats for the week in a tub each, that they will each get a bag of crisps and cake/sweets/choc bar. They eat it when they want but then its gone. No taking without asking.
As my 13 yo would eat them all in one day.
I am asking to reduce meds tomorrow with psych. As i have put 2 stone on in 6mths amd cant move or think properly.
Then will have more energy.
Need to walk more.

Well done OP - getting there!

There are plenty of ADs that don't lead to weight gain -some even to reduced appetite so perhaps see if you could change?

DO try and get some exercise as it really helps with mood.

All sounds great! You've already made so many positive changes. Remember to account for the side effects of starting new meds. You may feel worse before you feel better so don't give up x
I would ask for a full blood test and ask them to check your thyroid if they haven't. That can cause lack of energy and weight gain.
10 minutes of grumbling is nothing! I think they know it's not unreasonable for you to have a bedroom!
Keep us updated :) x

Thank you. I feel so sluggish and flat. My arse wobbles when i walk
The snow has got me down but feel much better today. I am trying to be thrifty to save a bit of money too x

Hope you’re getting on ok OP. Keep us posted !

So glad to hear things are picking up for you OP!
Hope you have managed to get DCs' beds/rooms sorted!
