[QUOTE="dstc_99, post: 570993, member: 15473"] She started in with the Facebook messages and continued until I stopped responding. Here is what she said to me after her father hung up on her this morning difficult child: Tell dad to call me back. He hung up on me and my texts wont send Me: Your dad has left the office for the night and your cell phone has been suspended. difficult child: For only two weeks. Oh wait I wont be there. Me: OK where exactly are you planning to go difficult child: Well I am not really sure what it will be called Me: I would suggest you reconsider your actions difficult child: Why you wouldnt be sad if I was gone, none of you would Me: Im sorry you feel that way. Apparently the love of your parents is not enough difficult child: And how is my car getting home. Taylor said some of the girls were in it and left their beer. I dont want beer in my car. And love? The only time you two even talk to me is to get me to do something for you or punish me. There is no love. difficult child: Forget it, it wont matter anyways. Didn't lay out dinner, guess you'll have to pick something up. Me: I'm sorry you feel that way. Your father and I love you very much. Otherwise we wouldn't bother to try and teach you right from wrong. Then she proceeded to go off about the beer and stuff in her car and how was I going to handle it and when was I getting her car. I basically just said it is none of her concern and I would handle it. She then texted and complained because she thinks I am trying to hide her car from her. I was trying my best to not engage in an argument and remain a loving parent at the same time. Any suggestions as to how I could have done better? [/QUOTE]
