To be annoyed at dp for buying our naughty girl an amplifier for her guitar when we have just moved into a rented house on a quiet cul de sac full of old people.

Dd has been a complete nightmare, rude, sulking, argumentative and generally difficult. Dp said the other day she is like that because I do not give her enough boundaries and discipline and I spoil her. We agreed no treats until she is behaving. But today if bought her an amplifier. When I asked why he said dd was playing up because she was upset at moving. Not only am I annoyed from the discipline angle but I don't think it is going to in down well with the new neighbours.

Lol I was wondering how many scones I would need to able to make up for the noise. Teenage angst! She is six for god sake If she user headphones will she not damage her hearing?

You could sneak a little something in to make the old dears sleepy.

i did assume she would be older. ds(7) keeps 'playing' his keyboard so i share your pain.

headphones should be ok

Right so rather than saying no to my over pampered child I need to poison my neighbours

[cornsilk]

Yeah that's about right!
