Homeschool Struggle
This is just a rant. I am not looking for judgements...Just need to blow off some steam. I love my SD so please dont assume that because I am ranting and annoyed that I am shitty person who has "it out" for her.
So with the schools shut down, my SD9 has been doing the homeschool thing with her dad. Because of my job, I am considered essential and leave to go work each day. Much of the work he monitors her, helps her, and keeps her on task. (math packets sent home to the kids, silent reading, and science packets etc)

Warnings
I have heard a few different things on strikes / warnings and would like opinions.
Do you think the the three strikes and your out... ie three warnings before a privlage is revoked or consquence is issued or a one warning rule is best?

Somedays I just need to breath
My SD9 is a sweet kid, but sometimes I wonder how she is going to make it.
She cannot seem to focus on more than one thing at a time. I know that is normal but this kid litterally cant walk and chew gum at the same time some days (some days she is very focused and can do amazing things. She has balanced on one food on an excercise ball and held that position whle having a conversation like it was nothing) bust o fthe time she is clumsy tho.

Make it stop!!
SD8 keeps saying "my dada!" "I love my dada!"
like seriously.!?
I asked her why and got "cause he's my dada! I'm always gonna call him dada... even when I'm 50!"
I threw up in my mouth a little...
but I'm the bad guy if I tell her she sounds stupid if she talks like that.
thank god for wine! Lol cause I need a lot today.

Being Rude
My SD8 goes to her Grammys every Friday night and comes home Sunday afternoon. ((BioHo lives on the otherside of the country is is not really involved other than the occassional phone call. There was a summer visit this past summer.. the first visit in 2 years but thats a whole other can of worms)
Grammy adores her, so she gets upset if she does not get her on the weekends, and frankly it gives my SO and I a kid free weekend... so it makes for a win win cause SD likes this arraingment to.

I feel so judgmental.
So this morning my sd8 is eating her flintstones gummies... and the sould of her chewing sounded so gross to me. Yesterday eating ceral she had to make all kinds of sound effects... why am I so grossed out and annoyed by her eating!?
she usually does pretty good about not eating with her mouth open but she is then noisiest eater!
It sounds so petty but I feel really cranky today and needed to vent!

Center of the universe
My SD8 has a bad habbit of treating people they they are there to serve her.
This is not an all the time thing. There are times when she is geniuenly sweet and loving. But other times her narcissim seems extreme for an 8 year old. I get all children can be selfish, so please dont' think that everytime she seems to be only concrened with herself Im freaking out that she is showing signs of narcissitic personality disorder (but sometimes I do actually worry)

Liar!!

A little background, BioHo is a compuslive liar who lacks ability to take accountability. She has been arreseted many times for drugs, dui, stealing... and she is always the victim.
