[QUOTE="Shari, post: 342928, member: 1848"] That's actually a good idea...maybe I won't follow her around, but maybe I'll leave her out of a few things I'm doing or not let her go on a few "teen" things she wants to go on when she's with us, and let her see the list as the reason why... *** I dunno. I don't know how much I can really impact her in the limited amount of time we have her. And her dad doesn't like to "be the bad guy", either, so its generally just me. *** It gets to the point that I don't even want her around, and that is sad. I've never felt that way about a child, mine or otherwise. But, just all the bs that surrounds her, both by her own actions, and the inactions of the adults in her world...I just don't want to be around it. husband thinks we need to punish Wee more when he's not at school. Yet she sat there last night, told me, in front of husband, that she'd done all of her homework, when she hadn't, husband knowing the rest of the details, and proceeded to watch tv til 10pm, occassionally putting a pencil to paper and doing a tad of work. Her mom's "tell her if she lies tomorrow, she's in trouble" koi. You have an email from a teacher that says she has been lying for 6 weeks, but she's only in trouble if she does it again??? She's a month away from being 13. Not 3. *** I know there is no "fair", but its really under my skin. I just don't want to deal with the crud that comes with her. And that bothers me. [/QUOTE]
