SD13 was all happy and smiling all day Sunday because DH and I spent $100 on clothes for her. Then she lies about taking money from her sister. We ask her to admit that she took the money from her but instead she continues to talk about she didn't know the money wasn't hers. Even though it was in her sister's purse. (SD13 only had $6 left from her birthday but she magically had enough money to buy the rings she wanted after coming out of her sister's room.) Her sister flipped because her money disappeared. SD13 instead of doing her chores and fairly making the money, takes it from her sister. After about a half an hour of fighting with her about it, we give her one more chance to tell the truth. DH tells she has a choice to answer the question or be grounded. Instead she tries telling everyone that the money in her sister's purse was a "sister fund". DH grounds her.

This means she's not allowed to use the cell phone we bought her. We get reports every night of her data and usage so we can make sure she is not using it at school. This includes her instant message conversations. One pops up last night where she calls DH crazy all the time for grounding her. I flipped but DH said I should let it go. I didn't, I texted her last night: Next time you decide to call your father names to your friends, just remember I pay for the phone that you do it with. She gets it from BM who constantly rewrites history and slams us constantly on social media. Sorry SD, lying and stealing in my house is not acceptable and you're the crazy one if you think it is ok. I'm so sick of this lying, two faced and back stabbing behavior. And DH just takes it.
