I don’t want mummy to come

Got period today so realising I’m probably being completely ridiculous/over sensitive...was upstairs getting ready to go for a walk with Dp, dog and toddler Dd when heard her say to dp ‘I don’t want mummy to come for a walk, I want her to stay at home and not come, I don’t want her to come, only daddy’
Was just a bit sad 🙈12 hours per day doing everything and the dad sweeps in and always gets all the glory!

We used to have this. I met the school bus everyday. Had the school bags chucked at me while they skipped off. Or grumbled.
DH met the school bus once in a blue moon... Straight into his arms for hugs. (To be fair... He was often working away).
They are so used to us being there they don't appreciate it.

My 8 yr old has just nearly had me in tears due to some things similar. Children can be bastards!
I’ve been at work all day, I do A LOT for them. I asked her a question about her day and she glared at me and said in a tone of disgust ‘I don’t want to talk to you’.....
It really hurt my feelings.
We’ve discussed it since and we’ll be friends before bed but it really bothers me.
She’d be beside herself with fury and upset if anyone did similar to her!

Both my DD's were like this. My eldest - it was the all singing all dancing Daddy parade while treating me like a piece of shit Youngest, at the moment it's me who is "the favourite". I think a lot of it is them testing out their new found power of language and seeing what it can do to people. Youngest isn't even subtle, "I love you so much" followed by, "can I have a teaspoon of Nutella?"

I’ve stayed at home, eating nachos!
It’s that she said it when I wasn’t there 🙈haven’t heard that before, she often says she wants daddy to take her to bed when it’s my turn, but a lot of that is because I’m two stories and lights out, whereas he lets her watch videos on his phone 🙄of course he’s more fun.
I’m just curious why she didn’t want me there 🤷🏻♀️🤣
