[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 155916"] I was making dinner and thought I had run the dishwasher. I hadn't. So, I asked difficult child to wash the small pan and a spatula for me. She yelled at me that she's not my servant and stormed away. I was so angry. I washed the pan and easy child is telling me to stop and he'll do it, but I was just so mad. I had asked easy child to help me with some things around the house today, but he had to go to his girlfriend's. He mowed their lawn, but he can't help me around the house. So, this thing with difficult child just really set me off and her attitude just threw me over the edge. (easy child got an earful, too.) After I washed the pan and the spatula, I went in her room and told her that the next time she asks me for helping cleaning her room, or wants me to do her laundry, or wants me to buy her something else that she doesn't need, or figure out each month how to come up with the money for her guitar lessons that I was going to remember her words today. And I walked away. She followed me yelling again that she is not my servant. She has it backwards. easy child and I are always picking up after HER. Sometimes if she's making herself some eggs I'll ask her to make me some, too. Or if she's going into the kitchen I'll ask her to grab something for me. She is NOT EVER treated like a servant. Are you kidding me? She's the freakin' little princess. :tearinghair: I told her to go back to her room; that I wasn't talking to her right now. So, a little later I sent easy child to the store to pick up a few things. I was writing the list and asked him to get difficult child so I could see if she wanted anything. Afterall, she had been complaining earlier that we needed to go to the store. So, easy child tells her that, "Mom wants you". difficult child said, "I don't care." And that was that. She didn't get anything from the store and I'm done bending over backwards for her. And I'm not speaking to her unless necessary until I get an apology. Childish? Maybe. But, I'm really done with being treated like dirt by her. [/QUOTE]
