    Spud i hate teenagers too! My 15 year old is supposed to be doing wathe washing and ironing to earn extra pocket money to buy christmas pressies! As a result None of us have any clean ironed clothes - and all the beds need doing! I'm sick of nagging her - best just doing it myself!!!
    And sammy I've got a sick little one too! DS has had a temp all day - and feeling miserable! Happy Christmas lol

    It is amazing, teenagers are capable of making me utterly furious.

    I love my job but when they pull a stunt like that Spud, 0 - 60 in temper ratings!

    At least you get to send them home at the end of the day Buffy :rolleyes:

    I must be a really bad mother......I got so fed up with her sulking I yelled that she should get of her lazy arris and go do herself summink. What will the neighbours thing :rotfl:
