So my daughter wants to play basketball at her high school. She is a good kid, but has had issues in the past year and a half with half truths her mother (my ex - I have full physical custody) has been telling her. So I set down some ground rules that she has to follow in order for her to play. She breaks every one of them. I tell her this morning that she is done playing basketball because she went back on her word. And of course she isn't happy.
WHY AM I THE ONE FEELING ROTTEN!?!? Is it a lost art for a parent to actually hold the kid accountable? Her coach thinks I might be overreacting and tried to poo-poo the whole thing. Problem is, the coach doesn't know the whole background.
