this morning with easy child.
She has been so rude, so disrespectful, and just plain nasty. This morning I told her I turned on the computer so she could print out whatever she was working on last night. Long story, short, she was just facebooking. She knows she is way behind on homework and needs to get caught up. She is so doggone passive aggressive. It drives me crazy. When I said something to her she blew up and said some really nasty mean stuff and I lost it.
I asked husband if he could drive her to school which meant he had to take both difficult child and her-not a fun ride. I screamed (which is something I don't do often but I had had it), told her I didn't want her in the car with me, that if she was going to be so rude all the time (and it is most of the time) she could just ride with dad (unfortunately I was also crying-I hate that when I'm mad that happens). I told her if she keeps this up I was done driving her. Of course, she wouldn't mind that but it means riding with difficult child and getting there late.
She had an old fashioned meltdown. Crying and screaming over and over that she wanted me to drive her. She just wanted to go to school. She blocked me from leaving for awhile. I went in the house and sat down.
Then she started getting even more mean, calling me names and saying all sorts of horrible things.
I told her I would still pick her up for her dr. appointment this morning. She said she wasn't going if I wasn't driving her to school. I said fine but I would come to her classroom and that would end up embarrassing her. She ended up coming out.
I feel bad but I'm just done with being treated like dirt. I know I probably way overreacted but it was like the straw that broke the camel's back. I also felt bad for husband because it's extra stress for him to drive both.
Arghh!
