The Gimmeeeeeees...and lack of gratitude
I just wanted to write a wee bit about what is going on. My daughter is not in a good place regarding being thankful, or humble at all. Please trust me on this.
It took me a few days to come to a new conclusion. I reached out here and I got some WONDERFUL advice. Like always, I have to absorb it before I can take action..or better said "IN-ACTION. For today, and until I see a vast improvement I am no longer inclined to be doing very much for my daughter. I love her, that is a given. And I love her enough not to feed into this new behavior which, if I did, would tell her "She can be a shit if she wants and still get what she wants." I am going to be very firm on this one. They say we treat people how to treat us. I may not be able to change her, but I can change me and the decisions that I make from today on out. Just a wee update....and of course it feels good to write this out. Thanks for listening....
