[QUOTE="shellyd67, post: 519626, member: 6371"] [B][I][FONT=comic sans ms]Everything is just a mess here at the Shellyd house. :hamwheelsmilf:I feel constantly on edge and worried about difficult child and I am in a very negative state of mind right now. It is so hard for me to articulate all my feelings right now. difficult child is doing well so far with his weekly tutoring with a Reading Specialist and begins Title 1 Reading services this week. [SIZE=4]YAY !! [SIZE=2]We are on the upswing sorting out all his extra help but his behavior at school has been poor and at home WHOA ! husband and I are at odds right now. He is soooooooooooo soft on difficult child and I feel like the bad guy all the time. husband had a very hard upbringing and had to take care of himself at a very young age and therefore he makes it so easy for my kids. He says I am hard and negative and that I need to give them a break. Well, I am sorry but every weekend is not a party ! difficult child wants a sleepover every weekend and he wants to run here and there and everywhere. He is late for dinner, husband and I have had to ride around looking for him 2 times this past week and he wants constant entertaining. NO, I am sorry but NO ! I allow sleepovers now and then and I am trying to give him some rope with bike riding with his friends but I recently also caught him without a helmet on and he was made to get off his bike and put it in the back of my car. He was so PO'd and freaked out like I had no right ! He has asked for a cell phone many times but I will not cave in , even though he has been late (that is what a watch is for) I should always know where he is and everyone of his friends have a phone in their house. He is not responsible and I KNOW a cell phone will get him into BIG trouble. husband just thinks I am being mean but I don't want my kids to be entitled. I just plain refuse. difficult child does nothing around the house, he does not listen, his grades are poor and his behavior at school is poor and now he asks to play Ice Hockey which costs over $1000. Really kid? I HATE feeling this way, I hate it !! I just wish I could be more laid back and deal with things better. I wake up every morning with good intentions, I really do but is is blown within 10 minutes. I am crying while I am typing. I am sorry for being such a complainer but I just feel like no matter what I do or how hard I try ....[/SIZE][/SIZE][/FONT][/I][/B] [/QUOTE]
