[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 387051, member: 6546"] Some of difficult child's expectations lately really have me cranky... She wants to rent out the ballroom at this fancy place downtown so she can have a "Masquerade Ball" for an MTV-Style Sweet Sixteen bash for her birthday in the Spring. She has been looking at castles and then announcing "O, that's the one I want to live in!" She has already started her Xmas list. And because this weekend is Halloween, she has all kinds of plans for going out with friends, sleepovers, watching scary movies, etc. Well, that's all well and good - but then ask her to help with something around the house? O she'd being tortured! O what cruel and horrible people we are! O the horror! And then she doesn't do it anyway... :angry: I know, I know...this is nothing new - but gee whiz! At some point, couldn't she please get some small grip on reality? As in - if you won't pitch in around the house, and you won't go out and earn any money yourself, and if you can't even be nice to the rest of your family....you gotta figure there's not a big "party fund" of available cash being set aside for your stupid wish list! O and one more - husband told her as soon as she moves out, he's going to turn her bedroom into a "game room". She told him he could not. Why not? Because even though she will be moving out ASAP (because of how horrible we are to live with, of course) she expects to keep all of her stuff here so that she can just stop over whenever she wants. So it will be our job to watch over her things... [/QUOTE]
