I have been having problems with dd1's behaviour lately (well forever really but more extreme recently) She shouts at me all the time and tells me I'm a horrible mummy etc. She told me yesterday to put on some make up find another man and if I do she will stay with daddy. She's SIX! DP and I have a good relationship soI don't know where it is coming from.She is insanely jealous of her little sister so she is probably seeing how far she can push me before I reject her which is what she thinks I will do. I know she's hurting but it is really getting me down when she tells me she won't eat my food because it's disgusting and that I do nothing becuase I don't work (I gave up work to spend more time with her) ANYWAY I could really do with DP giving me a bit of support but for the last 3 weeks he hasgone to a supermarket every night after work and only gets in after six (he works five minutes from home an finishes at 6) I have normally reached the end of my tether by then and have hidden from the kids as I'm doing now on the computer! Why can't he just come home earlier? I know it's not much fun here at the moment but we're all stuck in the same boat.
I'm not expecting any solutions it is just a bit of therapy to write it down.
