I Have Something to Say

My husband thinks I have a harsh attitude about his brother's daughter... our niece. But she is twelve now and she just literally spit out her wad of bubblegum in the parking lot where I work right next to my car! Someone (me included) could walk on it and drag gum all over our floor!

Am I wrong that it pissed me off to have to clean up after her?!?!

Well how old is your niece why should you have to pick it up? have her do it and well if your brother let her behave this way well what can you do? Well you could say when you are with me you are to behave correctly .

@updown2020 She's twelve and I didn't notice it until after they left. They live out of town. I wanted to call her Dad but my husband wouldn't let me because he said I was too angry. I had to get it out so I wrote it out on SW... and I went and picked up the dang gum.

@realrare Well 12 is old enough to pick up after themselves but like I said she learned that from some one and no one stop her so far so she probably thought it was okay to do

@updown2020 Here parents don't like discipline or teaching. They pretty much let their kids entertain themselves and if they cry they try to make them happy. :/

@realrare Well you wonder why she is the way she is.

@updown2020 I don't wonder... I know it's not her fault she's an awful child. Her parents brought her up to be annoying. I ,however, get scolded all the time because I get mad at her.
