Don't get me started.my eldest is almost 18 and all the time I was ill at home then in.hospital recently she was foul. The day after I git home she orchestrated a huge row and walked out nd has barely been seen.since. its hell

I totally sympathise - my 20 year old has finally discovered boys and clubbing - and is desperate to row with me so she can have some excuse for her appalling behaviour. She is neglecting her animals (horse and dogs) and hardly ever comes home. I am gritting my teeth and not arguing with her because she is just looking for an excuse to hate me as she obviously feels so guilty about her behaviour. She's been such a good girl all her life that it's really emotionally hard to see her behaving like this. Also - she's dirty and looks unkempt all the time. It doesn't help that said boy is heavily into drugs - and although she swears that she is not doing them - you can't help but worry. She's 20 though and has to make her own mistakes. Sigh.

Still it's getting me out walking the dogs for her I suppose.

I sympathise with you all. I was never blessed with children but have a niece. I was present when she was born - and held her before her mom did as my sister was not very well after the birth. As much as I love her I was always glad to hand her back after baby sitting duties. She is 19 now and when she was going through her early teens was a total monster. I had daily nightmares of getting a call to say my sister had done something to her and was in a prison cell. I really do not know how she coped - so hats off to all of you.

It does get better...I think. My niece has turned into a beautiful young woman and so pleasant too.

Children are a blessing but at the same time try the patience of a saint.

I have 3!! a lovely but very talkative 9 year old girl, a 12 year old grunting hormonal boy who thinks he knows everything and a 44 year old teasing man who winds the other two up something rotten - he is the worst of them all!! LOL!! My son started High School 2 years ago and went out in the morning a lovely, smart young boy and came home at 4pm a scruffy, cocky, stroppy, gobby little sh.t!! Not sure what happened in those 7 hours but it was intense!! He has his good days but few and far between - and now just spends all his time on the x-box in his room chatting to his mates - but at least he isnt downstairs winding his sister up or verbally abusing me!! Kids - got to love them!!

Hubby is taking baby to brummigan for the weekend this afternoon, so I have a toddler tantrum free weekend just me and the boy, who stays in his bedroom all day playing games consoles if I let him, so should be a quiet one for me! Although I do have a haircut battle with him, his hair is ridiculous but his father has told him long hair suits him

went through the haircut thing with my youngest when he was 14 it ended up down to his waist!!! He then just came in one day and asked for money to get his haircut and came back with his hair short. Sometimes they just simply leave you flabbergasted!

What is it about that older 'child' that they love winding the others up. Mine is 46 and the other two boys are 19 and 16 when they are all together they just wind each other up all the time. It is funny and not nasty in any way but after hours or days of it you do get a bit tired and want to leave them all to it. Have often thought about just booking into a hotel for a couple of days and leaving them to it!!!

My hubby is a teaser, and my 10 year old hates being teased. He can't understand it's in fun and doesn't get sarcasm etc due to his problems. It causes a lot of problems!

I grew up with 2 older sisters, one is 4 years older than me and the other one is 11 months younger than her. One of the reasons for me not having any more children is the 'MUUUUUUUUUUM!!!!! TELL HER!!! SHE'S GOT MY STUFF!!!!' or the constant messing about in the supermarket! No Thank You Very Much!
