    How about shopping for a DVD for yourself (and maybe some secret chocs to go with it) next time you go out? I love buying my favorite chocolate just for me, feels quite wicked.

    I treated myself recently to a DVD I hadn't seen since I was a teen. I could happily listen to Richard Burton's voice forever.... It's just dreamy.

    with hold services: dont cook for the dd17... i would let her get away with it. Im only 18 but trust me -i tested my parents. I used to run to dad or mum whoever gave in. So you need a joint force. dont let her think shes won. Just withhold things. My sister ran up a bill (high) so mum took it off her. I wouldnt let her use the house phone ect make her realise that there are consquences.
