Raising a child after the age of 45, how does one do that?
I thought I was finished with the boo boos and the runny noses. My one child is 21 and gone from home. I have no grandchildren, this is suppose to be my time, yet I mysteriously acquired a 4 year old girl. What do I do now?
This child is so different, is there something in the water? Whatever would possess her to wallpaper her bedroom with postage stamps? Why can't she remember what I just told her not to do, and why can she remember every word to the Sponge Bob Square pants song? What do I do now?
I want to know what is going on with kids these days. It's not her fault really, I know who to blame for this but what good would it do? I have become a screaming lunatic and half the time I have no clue as to whether I am coming or going. I had a job, but had to quit because between the 2, life started looking real impossible. I have a husband (got married again a little over a year ago). He has no kids and he has no clue. Bless his heart, he has tried but he is a little old for this too. So my question is, what do I do now?
Do I send this child back to the mess she came from and admit defeat? It seems like the easiest way to me. No, I couldn't do that to her. There has to be a better way. There has to be someone who can tell me the answer to the one question I have-
What do I do now????
