Sorry for not giving more info.
#1 I am getting married we have been together 7 years.
This is the thread
Now on to the Spoiled brat.
Have you ever met a girl that has always got what she wants. This one is not a daddy's girl, but a momma’s girl. Jodie got married to Jen's dad, had Jen (the spoiled brat) and then divorced in less than a year. She met hubby #2 a short time later, remarried and had two more kids. They were together for about nine years. Jen has seen her real father less than 10 times since she was 2 years old. Nate hubby #2 is her dad in her mind. Nate is a great guy and stops over everyday to she the kids. I call him for help with Jodie and Jen and he steps in and helps. Jen is 5 years older than Casey and 7 years older than Paige. In Jen's mind she has always been an adult. It has always been her and the two kids even when she was 11. Jen has always whined and nagged until she gets her way. I was the first one to tell her NO and stick to it. This means that we have never gotten along. We have sent her to her step dad's to live for a while until she wore out her welcome. Then she came home for a while and the up to her aunt’s house for a while until they threw her out. She had to stay with her grandma for a few weeks until we could go pick her up. Jen turned 18 in November and started acting out more. We started talking about relocating to the Charlotte area and that added to the problem.
At Christmas Jen hit me and I thought cool little girl your going to jail. I ended up in jail. All the charges got dropped, but I told the DA that she would be back in front of them with in a month. It was more than a month and I was going to Video tape it this time, but it scared her out.
You can call Jen a hottie. She has a boy friend that does what ever she wants. He is lacking in the self confidence area. They have broken up a few times and from what I get out of it. The break up is because he has told her no and stuck with it. After a few days he comes crawling back. You can’t blame the guy. She is probably the hottest girl he will ever date.
Every thing has been a battle with Jen. We told her we would buy a car and I would teach her how to drive back when she was 15. We told her as soon as she hit 16 it was all in place she just needed to get her grades up and keep them up. This never happened. She is 18 and does not know how to drive. I have to shuttle her around. She is always running last. You know that type of girl. Almost every time I have to shuttle her to work or her modeling classes I have to listen to her for about 5 minutes spout off about she is late because of me. Last Saturday I had to take Jodie back for a check up after she had lasik surgery. Jen spouted off for the first 5 minutes. Jodie could not believe the crap coming from her mouth. I usually just keep my mouth shut and let her finish, but Jodie gave it right back.
This is Jodie the one on the left and a friend of hers from work.
Jodie has a bad back she had 4 to 6 disc they have blown out. She had one disc replaced and one level fused in the middle of December. They cut an artery and she lost 2 pints of blood. Her recovery has been slow. Then on February 1st she had Lasik surgery. I think this has actually helped her back heeling. She can see now and is not jerking her back around trying catch her balance all the time. She still is not driving yet, so I am running the other two around yet, but they appreciate the ride.
The two younger kids are pretty much normal kids. We have normal issues with them, but they have completely different attitudes. They argue with us, but it is completely different. If we say no it is not a 20 to 40 minute fight. They both have grades that are much higher than Jen's. Paige has had a 4.0 and that is hard to beat. Casey likes cars, but he is not in love with them. He is 13 and has no problems with 130 mph, so I hope he comes around. No big deal if he doesn't.
