She says it every now and again, usually when me and dd are not getting on, and it really pisses me off.
Dd1 is nearly 12 and behaves like a typical preteen, nice one minute and a brat full of attitude the next. We have always clashed, thats just the way we are.
My mum keeps going on about that she thinks dd will end up wanting to live with her dad. I can see where she is coming from, as I am the one dishing out all the rules and punishments, and xp does nothing and so it might be seen as an attractive option. However, he lives in a 1 bed flat, and never does anything with the dc at all and so they are always bored when they go there.
When my parents divorced, I fought like never before to be allowed to live with my dad and in the end I won and my brothers also stayed with him. I think in an odd way my mum is hoping that dd does do this so that I will know how she felt. I know she hasn't ever forgiven me for choosing my dad.
Also my mum thinks I am totally nuts because I said that if dd ever did decide this, as gutted as I would be, I would not stop her, and my reason for that is because my mum made my life hell when I told her I wasn't going to be living with her, and i'd never do that to dd.
I just wish she'd shut up about it.
