[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 522642"] When we got home, he turned into the pouty little two year old. He got mad that he wasn't allowed to have a bedtime snack.... It didn't matter that we'd just had birthday cake and ice cream 1/2 hour before we came home, it was snackTIME (8:30 pm) when we walked in the door. Then he asked if he could eat some cookie dough. Ummm, no, it's frozen, I'm going to make cookies with it, I don't believe in eating raw cookie dough (I know there are many people who do but I'm not one of them). He stomped upstairs so I told him he might as well go to bed. I never did get around to the soda issue. difficult child 1 had forgotten about it too. I didn't remember until well after the 10:00 news. I will address it today. As for my mom, I sometimes wonder if she isn't in therapy. She has said to me and my other sister at varying points in time how she's had suicidal thoughts. She and I both KNOW my mother well enough to know that it's just a manipulative tactic. That phrase quit working on me years ago. Anyway, none of us kids spend much time with her anymore because of her negativity and the grown grandkids have even less to do with her. I wonder if it FINALLY dawned on her that since SHE'S the common denominator, maybe there's something wrong with HER and not everyone else. It's really hard to explain but that's my theory. I will have to watch for other "changes". [/QUOTE]
