If only
This is another quick note, so last night we did away with all cell phones for the girls, A2 & A3 could have cared less, but A1 took it really hard she cried and cried and cried to the point that she ended up crying herself to sleep. Lately she just doesn't seem happy and when I say that I mean she never seems to smile anymore and I am trying to figure out what it is that is bothering her so much. I know onething is she thinks her dad is always mad at her. Sometimes he is because she has become so self centered and she just wants more and more and more. She isn't satisfied with what she has. Last night were talking to her and I told her if she only could take one peep at the way we grew up she would be greatfull. We never got new clothes until we started working at 15, we had to buy a car for ourselves, nothing from mom. If only she could see how good she has it. I wish I could get her to be happy. If this keep up, I might have her see someone to talk it out. The hubby told me if she comes to me and tells me it is his fault then I am to shut her down. You see we had a good conversation about this before we even gave them the talk and I told him he needed to lighten up with her and quite being so hard on her and I don't she him changing. Now me on the other hand he and I both know my type of parenting and unfortunatly it is way different from him. He says I am fooling myself, I don't see it that way. I just don't know what to do, I feel really bad about taking the phone from her since that is how she talks to her friends and now, she won't be in the loop anymore and that makes me feel bad. I will give it a few days and see how A1 takes it and how I take it then I might talk to him about new rules for the phone. I don't know. HE will be pisst about it but that may be it. I just wish she would tell him how she feels, I told her last night, to tell him how she feels and she wouldn't she will have to stand up to him and he needs to shut up and listen to her. Well I love and miss you. Talk to you soon. |
