I decided to play Mrs. GoodWife and picked up SD like I was asked. Although now I wish I didn't. The kid does not shut up. Constantly talking about "my mommy this" and "my mommy that". Ugh...Anywho, I get her back to the new house and she immediately begins doing laps through the house, I told her to not run in the house and she continued to do it, so she got sent to her room and had to sit on her bed. No tv, no toys. Then after supper she started in with the "I only like my mommy and daddy together". DH explained to her that sometimes mommies and daddies decide that they are better off friends than being a husband and wife. Well that didn't satisfy her because every chance she got she would tell ME that Mommy and Daddy are supposed to be married NOT me and daddy. This went on for about 4 hours even after we explained it to her and asked her to stop talking about it, finally DH sent her to her room and we took away her toys and TV again. So the next morning, the little bugger would NOT listen to me AT ALL. I was unpacking some boxes and flattening them out to go in the dumpster. Well some of the boxes had the industrial staples left on them and were poking out, SD decided to play on them even after she was told not to. I told her to go play elsewhere, she stood there, I asked her AGAIN to go play elsewhere, she stood there, so after about 6 minutes of trying to get her to listen, I picked her up and moved her myself, then she screamed and bawled "YOU PUSHED ME!" I told her she wasn't listening and that she was being naughty. Well she yelled at me "YOU'RE NOT MY MOM! I HATE YOU!" and I yelled back at her "NO I AM NOT YOU'RE MOM BUT YOU WILL LISTEN TO ME." Then I sent her to her room AGAIN. She screamed and yelled, threw stuff, tried slamming her door a few times (we made sure her door could never slam). She was in there for an hour before she stopped her hissy fit. When she came out boy did she have an attitude. I told her she had better check her attitude and if she continues this that she will lose everything for a long, long time. Her attitude did not improve so she ended up losing her TV for the next week. Ugh kids...Why do we, as stepparents, always get the shit end of the stick?
