Letting them live rent free even though they're in their 20's working and with more disposable income than me.

Can't complain too much though as I still get 4-6 holidays a year (kid free)

However, the oldest still burns water and cannot slice bread and she's meant to be a scientist!

Being treated like a piece of shit by your 13 Year old - and having to constantly bite your tongue because she has severe anxiety and depression - and you know she only takes everything out on you because you’re the only person she really trusts not to turn your back on her - and because she loves you most!

That's actually one heck of a compliment that she trusts you to be the one she goes off on. Hope you have people to support you too.

Having 4 of the little... Darlings... Yes we'll go with that word.

Keeping them from starvation seems to be a constant battle, I think they've all changed their names to "hungry", they tell me that enough

I am so glad I only have a 13 year old niece, who is an angel and an absolute shit with the hormones.

Not to forget the 6 year old shi...err nephew, wants everything his way or throws a tantrum.

So glad I only see them once in a blue moon.

That ends half term. We're both booked off, so if I have to get up 20 times a night I'm getting her back in her own bed.

It's really though. I went through the same work my youngest. First night I reckon I put her back to be around 40 times.

My daughter was wonderful up until she turned 12. I learned exactly what everyone meant when they replied ‘you just wait’ to my smugness.

She still is wonderful... just a whole heap of drama and angst too. Parenting problems I have plenty!
