I am as disengaged and it pisses the hell out of her. I bought all of the kids alarm clocks 2 yrs ago and told them it is a must that they all start waking themselves up. SD, of course, will not listen to me and do as i say so she didn't use it. She wakes up when she hears her brother, every effin day. Tuesday she had had enough of my and dh not fighting so she stirs her little witchy pot and asks DH to tell me to wake her up or get her another alarm clock. I took alarm clock out of her room cuz it was peeling the paint off of the stand it was on and she WASNT using it.
I say, "no, she gets herself up every single day without problem, she is playing games again and wants me to look like a bad guy cuz she knows i will not do it. I also told him, not to worrry about little princess manipulator that her brother will wake her up if she doesn't get up.
Well dh showed me, he woke me up 15 minutes late today. Well, darny darn didn't the boys all wake up late today too (they really did cuz they slept in a little longer). So i text dh to tell him we ALL woke up late today isnt that funny. What comes around, goes around.
The more she keeps trying to provoke me, the more i will stay disengaged. How can a child be so vengeful! It is her livelihood to provoke me.e
The game before this was moving real slow in the morning so she could miss the bus. I told her and him i would not stress myself out to get her moving and if she missed the bus he would deal with her. She misses me yelling at her so she can tell daddy how mean i am. Get a grip little girl, i refuse to be the bad guy ever again!
