[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 208524, member: 3419"] I like what Marg said: So when difficult child comes and whines that she's hungry and wants dinner, then the response is obvious: "Sorry darling, I'm just too ill. I had only limited energy and I used it all up and then some, taking care of YOUR animals." (Don't over-emphasise the 'your'). You would need to follow through, Heather, and just stay in bed. Make it clear that this is serious, you're not just whining (like she is) but you genuinely are too tired to cook dinner because you did too much already. [/QUOTE]
