Now days you see children getting more and more from parents, but do they work for it do they say thank you or please or do anything too make it okay.
As a parent and step parent I see this every day. When you pay for cell phones for a child to have. Yes, I could just have it where they can only text and talk and pay for no data what so ever. However, with way things are its something extra for a child. Now the youngest is 9 he's had a phone since about 7 years old for safety reasons. However, as some parents do we every get a thank you, no., We get children that over use their data and ignore the parents time and time again about not answering the phone or text messages using all data and fact ignoring everyone and only playing games.
Now another thing pisses me off is internet for the house! They think it's free that they can just sit on ass all day ignore the world and play on game systems and ignore everything around me. Now growing up yeah, I didn’t have all this I went and played outside with my friends or went friend's house and we play games or watch movie or the old Nintendo 64 Mario party why because we didn't need keep upgrading out game systems. Now what do they do those game systems rewind them with stickers and smashing controllers on floor stepping on them and fact that they don’t take care cords also. It ends up messed up why because they don’t care they didn’t pay for it. They don’t pay for the internet which bring it up to the light and electric in the house. Running your game 24/7 and never shutting it off drives me nuts it’s a game you don’t need leave it on to save your spot.
Another major thing in our house that pisses me off. Is my husband's step son he lives 2 hours away so on friday we drive out 2 hours pick him up drive two hours back! Now I get it he doesn’t live here but ignoring the adults and just using us for internet to play on Xbox with your friend and play on phone we pay for. We feed you the whole time you’re here and you scarf it down to go right back game system. Than on both days you sleep till 1pm to get up and do games all over again and ignore everyone once again. That fact that you need remind a teenager to shower drives me nuts!
Now the other boy he does shit pisses me off also where they both walk by clothes on floor and ignore the dog. You have to remind them to clean up after self and sometimes they don’t listen. What upsets me is the oldest step son tells me all time he hates Devin he doesn’t like him don’t like playing with him. When its just us and it kills me to hear that like why I even take my time out my day drive to you and get you come my house for what! It just minds boggling.
How many step parents or parents have these struggles where your children just don’t care for things you proved but we keep proving them still this day.
I vote once they can get job at 16 they are cut off pay your own way! Pay your cell phone, you will be charged for internet you will be charged for electric in this house! Just personally to show our children stuff is not always free like they think of it.
