I hear you, my kids are always coming home with some stupid idea in their heads. their friends say this or their friends say that. My oldest daughter, and I'll never forget this as long as I live, came home one day and decided since her friend didn't have chores that she shouldn't either and damn well let me know it. Words took place..... LOUDLY, now she is 16 at the time, keep this in mind.... she swung at my face, saying I was a horrible mom for making her work, blah blah blah....... I told her "If you swing at me again, I am going to knock you on your ass", she was bigger than me, so she did it and I hit her just as hard as she had hit me..... you know what she does?
She screams at me that she is calling the social workers, that's fucking abuse, her exact words and she went running out the front door...... I warned her if she stepped one foot off that porch, I was calling the law my damn self and we'd see what happened with THAT.
She looked at me and says TRY IT!! I picked up the phone and called them and they came and picked HER up down the road and brought her home....... sat with us for awhile talking, and apparently had been watching the rest of my kids (3), and then looked at her and the look on her face was and still is priceless....... "Look, you have it pretty good here, I see no abuse from anyone but you and if I have to come out here again about this I am taking YOU to jail, young lady". She started screaming I abused her and showed him the red mark on her face..... he asked her if she hit me first and she said yes but she was mad... so he says, "She has a right legally to defend herself and you are bigger than she is, so what did you expect her to do. You better watch it, if she wanted to press charges YOU would be going to jail right now".
That kid shut her mouth and never ever swung at me again and while there were verbal fights, she never pushed me that hard again. She also did her chores from then on out.
My daughter and I are best friends now, and I remember she came up and hugged me afterwards and apologized to me, we cried and then she gave me the funniest look and says "Wow, Mom, I didn't know you had it in you, I'm impressed".
It is in insanely extreme cases that would call for me to raise a hand to one of my kids, and I don't like to, but at the same time, I will NOT be threatened or abused, on ANY level by them because they have been taught that THEY hold all the cards, not in MY house. lol
