I have a 13 year old and this has been going on too long. Every time she comes home from dads, it's nothing but stories about the other side and my parenting flaws.She came home last night. First, she had a story about how she got new boots, but dad and stepmom would not let her wear them over because I "ruin" items when I have them. I was told by her I also "steal" things and never return them.Then, it was about a conversation in the car they had about how she is not allowed to wear tube tops. She wanted to know if I would buy her a tube top behind her father's back to wear to school (no).Her next topic was trick or treat. I know she made this up. I checked all her candy after while she went to the bathroom for 3 mins. We actually checked it together after she came back. Some was slightly unwrapped and I kept maybe 3 of 200 pieces. She told me her dad accused me of unwrapping it while she was in the bathroom because I was "jealous" of her candy.Next, we had to talk about how I haven't set her up with the bus company yet. We just moved 4 days ago and I actually have set her up and told her father on the porch. She told me both parents sat in the car on the way over and said I was a "bad parent" for not getting this done, that I am lazy, and I highly doubt they said any of this. She just wants us all to fight.These stories really get on my last nerve, but I never show it. I just nod and say "uh huh". She makes coparenting impossible and creates tension. I just want to enjoy a normal evening without her lies and manipulation. She is paid attention to nonstop at home, but it's never enough. Help? via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/2ivx1Dz
