And now my D just had a spectacular display of bad teenager attitude and I didn't handle it well, mumbled the F word and slammed the door on her. She is just so unbelievably disrespectful it is downright shocking to me that any child could act this way to a parent. She has already lost electronics for 3 days. I don't want to keep piling on the punishments, it gets to a point where it is just a battle of the wills and hers is so extremely strong. I am on a roll today with reacting, first to H, then to D. I need to pull myself back in. I am unraveling.
I wish I could just grab my two boys and run away. Leave H and D to work it out between the two of them.
