    Today.......not so much By the time she agreed to get her clothes on she was going to have to wait and eat breakfast after the older kids were dropped at school. Normally not a big deal. Today, she shoved food in her mouth, left the dining room and spit it all over living room. When I told her she would have to pick it up she spit at me and then spit all over the hardwood floors and rubbed it in. Then the screaming at the top of her lungs started. DCM had to pick up before 9AM.
    If that were my child, I would be mortified and embarassed and pi**ed off at my child's behaviour.

    What did mom say?

    I really like your plan of action, btw. Hope it works out, however that may be.

      Best of luck! Be prepared for them to term themselves now that they're being held responsible for their child's behavior!

        I would be embarrassed as well but this DCM has had incidents that should have been so much more embarrassing, like forgetting her kid at school and the police having to find her more than once, to where this isn't that serious to her.

        She has rarely, if ever, offered an apology just an ok and today when DCG was crying not to leave here, the only thing she said was "you can't act right at daycare so you have to come home with me". DCG told me the other time she was sent home her mom yelled

            Wow. I am glad you called for pick-up. That is inappropriate behavior and you do not need to endure that. Hopefully that mom starts parenting and gaining control of her child.
