Stop taking her shopping, no more spending. That makes a bigger difference than yelling, or fighting with her about it. Everytime she gives you attitude or talks back, take something from her. You literally take it, so your husband can't give it back. |
I do know its a phase. maybe I'm more mad at hubby than her. lol
I try and remember that, I mean I did the same thing to, but heck, I guess what goes around comes around.
I do need a break....lol
the beach and a margrita would be nice. lol
oh can can you fast forward thru these years? Just wondering. lol
But then at the same time, the thought of her growing up and moving out of the house just kills me. lol
