(((nc)))) Boy do I know those days. It is trying time, and im just dealing with S4 being extremly stubborn. I am guilty of coddling my boys, but my reason is exhaustion. I unfortunately do not have the full support of my H in handling my kids. He is either not here, or just leaves me to be the one who does the punishing, and the "taking care of their needs". He just plays wih them, and thats it, and if he does get involved with something that I am punishing him for, he doesn't back me up.
Your exw is damn lucky to have you to be that other person who can take on some of that burden. I wish I could be more stern with my kids, and sometimes I am, but its really hard when im always by myself.
You aren't doing anything wrong, you are trying to show them responsibility and it is FOR SURE harder to stick to your guns then to just "cave"...
Im glad today went better for you.
Your doing great nc... you know she will always take a stab at you whenever she can... that''s her hang up.
Take care.
