Teen SD Expenses?

Dogmom1321's picture

Okay, so those of you that have a Teen SD... how do your DHs handle their expenses? SD13 has gotten out of hand lately with all of the requests for DH to buy her things. 

1. Haircut (totally understand) but with highlights and lowlights at a popular salon

2. Movie money

3. Halloween costume 

4. Sneakers

Skincare tools in freezer? Ew.

I'm getting ready to make dinner.. open the freezer to find SD13 skin/facial tools in the freezer. One of those face roller things. Well I'm getting stuff out and it falls down onto another shelf. I just left it there. 
 

SD comes downstairs and starts rummaging through the freezer. Told her the skincare fell and on a different shelf. She seemed annoyed that her personal items, that were put in a common place, had moved. 
 

DH Throwing SD13 the biggest Pity Party

DH is back to being delusional when it comes to SD13. She has been at our house this week (not a scheduled visit, whole other story). Well, DH is working full time and I'm taking care of our DS2.

Anyway, SD13 has been here 6 days. Literally every. single. day. she stays up all hours of the night on her phone and sleeps ALL day. Secluding herself in her room only to make an appearance in the kitchen for junk food. 

SD13 wasting food

My parents came in town last Friday to babysit DS2 while DH and I went to a concert. I ordered my parents Chipotle to be delivered so they would not have to worry about making dinner and also a thank you for babysitting. SD13 was also at our house so I asked her if she wanted me to order her dinner too. I typically would not order her food too, but would have felt bad if I didn't.

SD13 is perfect

I'm totally disengaged and don't even mention SDs name anymore. Even if there is an issue I totally ignore it and avoid bringing her up to DH at all costs. Things have been great since! DH and I haven't argued. 

DH brought up SD13 in conversation the other day while we were on the phone. Apparently, BM made SD a hair appointment for a keratin treatment on Saturday. 

DH: SD13 just called me and she's bawling her eyes out!

Me: Why?

DH: SD was at the hair salon and she said BM started yelling at her! *Gasp*

Shocked at DH comments

I've posted a ton of blogs on here about SD12 behavior and attitude. Mostly trying to get a guage on what is typical teenage behavior.

Well, more drama with SD12 came up the other day. This time involving SD having an argument with BM. DH was telling me the *long* story and proceeded to say: "Well I'm not saying that SD12 definitely has a personality disorder, but she has traits of one... and her BM does too. But BM doesn't help the situation." OMG, FINALLY! I feel like DH will have a moment of realization... then take two steps back.

SD12 is a Bully!

I've posted a lot on here about SD12 and the "girl drama" she is having in middle school. Here's an update.

Apparently a few days ago, someone made fun of SD on the bus.  The kid said she can't straighten the back of her hair (lol, actually true though). By the way, the other kid is in 6th and SD is in 7th. Even though SD "couldn't remember" the other stuff this little kid said to her. It escalated to SD saying "they were going to fight"? What in the white trash Jerry Springer is this!?!

Alternate Reality

Sometimes I swear DH lives in an alternate reality! MIL stopped by for a visit yesterday. We were all just chatting and catching up. MIL asked how SD12 was doing. DH said SD12 hates being at our house because she has chores and he makes her stay on top of school. LOL WHAT? SD12 doesn't even clean up after herself in her OWN room! Let alone help out around the house with chores. Idk what he means about school... when she is not faking sick, SD12 goes... she has okay attendance, but failing 3 classes!!! 

No Christmas Visit

DH is once again in denial about his indifferent SD12. Before school got out for Winter Break, she was asking everyday "when can I go to BM?" Basically as soon as the last school bell rang, she wanted DH to give her a ride to BM. He knew she was going to visit BM family (about 8 hours away). SD12 told DH that she would be back the day after Christmas... so about 1 week with BM, then one week with us. He thought that sounded good. DH and BM are no contact, so DH just took her word for it.
