got to say, sometimes I wonder why I bother, and what on earth is the point of it all!!!

[Psychomum5]

cos today has been the pits!.

I feel taken for granted, and as tho I am raising spoilt brats.

lots is my fault, I will admit.....I had and utterly shite childhood, neglect and abuse playing huge roles, and so I think I may be overcompensating for what I nevere had, but even so......

DD1 has really hurt my feelings tonight, and there has been a massive arguement culmintating in DD1 calling DD2 a bitch, and TBH, I am beyond caring as in a way, DD2 deserved it as she was very very rude.

BUT

all I want is children who feel loved, and for us all to enjoy our family without too many issues. I am sick to death of the sniping and the competetiveness and the ungratefulness and the mess.

so there........moan over, and thankyou for letting me offload.

off to face the next step in parenting

noooo....DD2 hurt my feelings! DD1 stuck up for me, in ways not overly appropriate....

It's wank isn't it.

I only console myself that they are (fairly) nice in public and at school.

yup, that is true....I always get good reports from other parents when they go to friends, and school, and also, family don;t say the same.

just me

Me too. At least they feel comfortable in expressing their feelings and frustrations around us ???

that is something to console us by then

or is it???

ho hum

That's what all kids are like sometimes - but they aren't like that all the time and sometimes they are just gorgeous. Especially when they are sleeping!
Sounds like you've had a hard day.

I know......soem days are lovely.

today has not been!!!

all kids are evil, i vote to sell em all.

flameboy has spent the day pissing (and pooing) wherever he stood... including school reception

believe me flame, peeing and ppoing is preferable to today.

at least you see what you get!!!

altho PMSL @ reception, but I can appreciate that you did not!!!

i did a bit

hiding, but I am there!
