Do what you know is right
Quote From: irish718My daughter has been rebelious since she was a little girl. She was always mouthy, and did what she wanted to do. I had her when I was young, I didn't have the patience for that kind of attitude. Yes, I use to argue back with her, now I know that it was a mistake to argue back. She's been in relationship different men, and couldn't get along with them, so she would end up coming back home to live with us. She's now in a relationship with a man that both my husband and I like, he treats her good and provides for her. My daughter argues with him, usually in front of her six year old daughter, she's is now thirty one years old. I on the other hand had two girls later in life, my girls don't understand why my oldest is always so angry. I try to brain storm about it, but that's just the way she is. She is always very negative, and say's alot of negative things to my two younger daughters. etc...The one is spoiled and lazy, and the other one is a cocky little thing...She even tries to get them to agree with her on certain issues. She tries to get them to turn against my husband and I. She really shouldn't be talking to them at all, about anything negative, there young and able to understand where she's coming from. But, ya, she's very negative, and I don't know what to do about it. Any Idea's from anyone? I have only one sister and I would lay down my life for her. She was and is the same way you describe your daughter. I try to show her how better life could be if she could just take it easy but she is who she is. She's not a bad person and she tries really hard to be a good mother to her two little girls, so I try to give her credit where credit is due. If you tell your daughter that being pissed off all the time is wearing you down and she doesn't care or even try to change it I believe you need to tell her to get lost until she can behave like a grown adult. My husband has two brothers and a sister and they are not a part of our lives because we do not want negativity around our children and let me tell you they are NEGATIVE and NASTY. I a firm believer in Dr. Phil's advice of "you teach people how to treat you". You should talk to your daughter about how you have changed from that argumentive mother into a peaceful loving mother and just maybe you could change her life.
