Annoyed - but is it a sensible annoyance? Okay honest answers only guys - my 17 yr old daughter (with whom I had a fantastic relationship until about a year ago, but has since gone downhill) is dong my head in. Now we aren't a rich family but the kids do get to go to private school as the MOD pays for 90% of the fees (I'm sure having them away is a major part of MY problem); anyway, she mixes with lots of rich kids and has expectations beyond our means. For her birthday she wanted a Pandora bracelet (real not a fake one, or a different brand) with real charms. I trawled eBay for weeks and found a very good condition second hand one, bought a brand new Pandora box and polishing cloth for it etc, but then had to buy cheap charms for it. On her birthday she didn't even say thank you. Her dad told her too and she still wouldn't. Yesterday she lost her favourite pen. I knew I had one that was exactly the same so this morning I gave it to her - it wasn't good enough and was handed straight back. Our days seem to continue in this way most times. I try to help/ give her love/ stuff etc and she throws it back in my face. SHe flinches if I touch her. Am I being silly? Is this normal teenage behaviour or do I need to rip her off a strip? At the moment I'm on the no agro route, but she doesn't get better. Or is it me over reacting?

You're not over reacting, but this is normal teenage behaviour. My OH has 2 teenagers and they are the same when it comes to material stuff. And they always know best about everything, even though it's obvious they don't. I still love them though, but it will be interesting to see how they adapt to adult life....

I always find that guilt tripping them works better than being angry.

I agree with Kate you are not over reacting, you are just being a caring mum.  I have 3 boys and they all went through the same, although I think its easier with boys.  They also went to private school for a time, MOD payed.  They had to wear their own clothes, which was difficult as the others at the school had serious money and had all the latest clothes, trainers etc.  We couldn't afford this for our boys.  My boys are grown up now and they see things differently now.  Just try and go with it and treat her as you have always done, she will come out of it and see things as they are.

Take care

No idea about  children I'm afraid so no comment possible...



Slightly less tired this afternoon, now resisting the urge to go and do things that 'need' doing  ::)

Been fidgety for a few days but felt like sinking deeper. Think deep depression is coming but it feels different somehow. After this news from atos I also feel really anxious about this medical they are forcing me to go to, just feel like not claiming anything but I need some sort of income. Sick of all of this now, wish I'd never seen doctor or anyone, mind flashing and not feeling good at all, looking for ways out now. Feeling backed into a corner so much. I hate this, all of it.

Having a good day today.  A friend came round for coffee this morning and brought along a lovely bunch of daffadils which makes me think of spring, sunshine and gardens so brought a smile to my face.  Another friend is here but that's works related.  However one of my better days.

Me too!  Good to hear you're having a good day :)



This morning I saw my first snowdrops of the year so it made me smile, getting rather bored resting and am nibbling so will be piling on the pounds - I must stop buying dried mango, its dreadfully moreish :(

Yes the cast is driving me mad as I want to walk normally and my foot gets itchy  %^% .  My brain seems to scrambled as well so what should be easy tasks such as making a pot of tea seems to take twice as long. I'm good at getting around home now and enjoying being wheeled around by Rick as I'm a wicked cow  £$%
