DS has his bday today. We haven't had a big day as everyone was at school/work.
However he has the new fifa game and lots of bday money, I cooked a really nice meal and his favourite dessert.
We are also paying for him and friends to go to an event and a meal over the weekend.

However he has been horrible all day told me he hates me, won't speak and is just in an awful sulk. TBH he is like this most days but it really got to me today, I keep thinking back to that gorgeous scrumptious baby I was holding this time 14 years ago Grin.

He will get nice again one day won't he?

Take his presents off him, the ungrateful little shite

Are you crazy?

You don't give presents to sulky little people who are rude to you!

Take them off him, send him to bed and tell him he will get nothing until his attitude improves.

I think I love you Colditz, he is being bloody horrible isn't he?

Laurie, have just told him to fetch his xbox and phone down, also told him I will not pay for his day out on saturday unless his attitude changes and fast.

Too bloody right, we have had a similar thing today - DD is going on a school trip next week and is insisting she has a load of new clothes, came home today, we asked her to make a list of what she wanted so we could go to the shops open late tonight, she threw an absolute strop about it, so hence, no clothes today! Next chance she will get is Monday as we are working all weekend.

Definately would have done the same thing as you CmcG :)
