I was home alone with SS14 last night. The second FDH leaves, this kid totally changes and it’s a constant struggle for me as I have to let him know he isn’t running the show. So after I had to be on him to complete the tasks his dad instructed him to do he finishes, walks towards OUR bedroom and says "I’m going in here, me and my dad's private lair". Are you kidding me? That's my room! I just finished redecorating and buying all new bedding! And he is going to tell me the room belongs to him and his dad! This kid is almost 15 years old! (yes, socially delayed). So I told him, "Nope, that room is the private lair for ME and your dad. Your private lair is over there (pointed to his room).
And, I get the innuendo, he wants his dad back but was it wrong of me to say that? Was there something else I should have said? I dont want to feel like I am stooping down to his level. I just needed to vent, this kid has really been driving me crazy lately.
