So a week's worth of low level rudeness and general teenage grumpiness came to a head yesterday afternoon . .
Daughter was summoned into the living room by my wife (I'm too soft for formal discipline) for a "little talk". The upshot being that she is now confined to barracks for four days.
No immediate reaction from very stroppy teenager.
Then: "So, like, I'm not allowed to go out?"💡
"Ah" 🤔
"Oh b*****s!!!"
The last comment certainly did not help her cause 😅
She was quite sweet with me after that, perhaps out of shock at my wife's strictness. We read together for a bit and listened to some Taylor Swift in her bedroom, which is about as exciting as my Saturdays get these days 🎵
Not too bad this morning either, but as I will be stuck at home with her I am silently willing Thursday to come around quickly.
