I'm too tired to vent, so this is just a little whinge.
This morning it is my fault that a History textbook is missing, it's my fault that he can't find his Maths textbook....why won't I pay the nearly $100 replacement fees so he can sign off from school and not be the only pupil there for the next 6 school days.Come to that, why won't I let him leave school early....before the official end of term. Oh, and while we are at it.....he is getting shtick from the teachers because he is not wearing his sports uniform....why won't I buy a replacement for the third set "lost" this year.
Oh it's been a great start to the morning Ladies.....do I have to bring up the fact that he was sprung truanting last Friday just as I was on my way to stay with Di. Why do I nag him about the letter, on Monday, from the Teacher of his favourite subject, warning of non completion of next years Schools Certificate because none of this years assignments have been handed in or if they have , not on time. Do I have bring up the fact that the schools records are all screwed and that a further letter received yesterday advising of 6 days unexplained absences in the past month cannot possibly be right....the school is out to get him.
Well he doesn't know what he has done to make me disappointed.....maybe I don't try hard enough to help him, other parents give their kids the benefit of the doubt....but no, not me because I don't really care for him at all....I'm too interested in just me....I'm selfish.....Oh you will pick me up this afternoon won't you.
Ladies, it is so hard not to argue back, it is hard not to scream at him and escalate the situation. I can't tell him that his father's new wife will not have him in her house unless his Dad is with him all the time and that The Spineless wimp acceeds to her demands in a way that he never did for me during 26 years of marriage. That would just about destroy him.
Do I go and get a packet of cigarettes now?
Anyone a spare couple of dozen Valium?
