Thursday

Scary some days to realize how much I truly just hate Nabal. It's almost as if I've had no effect on my kids at all. They are great on so many levels, yet self centered and self absorbed. Yes like other teens, but they r encouraged almost. I have learned over the years that to let Nabal in on any parenting is a mistake. For one he has garnered. No respect thru the years. Second he goes over the top immediately- berating, threatening to take privileges practically for life... He is the guy in the bible who frustrates his children. I feel so depressed and alone here lately. Kids don't help with anything. Even if they decide to clean their own spaces by their choice they are mad, and make me seem as if I had ordered then to clean. Our girl gets out of work by saying she has friends over...every day!
