Ive just venting my frustration really but I'm sure there's others out there feeling how I do. I've been a loan parent for the past 6 years, basically bringing up two teenage children who are now 19 and 21 alone (their dad is totally out of the picture). My eldest DS is generally no bother apart from staying up all hours on his PC, somewhat lazy but does have a good F/T job. My DD on the other hand pushes me to the limit most days. She's sullen, rude and totally ungrateful. Today's example; she's been asking me to help her update her CV because her F/T job contact ends at the end of Aug. I've given up my weekend with my partner to gets stuff done (moving house soon) and spend time to help her. She agreed to do it after she'd eaten her breakfast that I prepared for her and then she sneaked upstairs because her boyfriend called, and she says she has a headache. I have a moan at her and she has the cheek to call me a control freak because I asked her to come back downstairs. I'm so fed up being a mum and don't want to feel like this, I actually resent the children I've brought into this world and feel trapped with no way out. I know there's people in a much worse situation than myself but I'm just exhausted of my life as mum.
