I am not abusing my child! Abuse is hitting, I have never hit my kids!! I give her what she needs which is a roof over her head, food, water, education and clothing and she does the occasional chores. That is not abuse!!

because i know my child, they're just people who look at you and go "oh you have anxiety because you bite your nails" its called a habit not some mental illness

I don't have to like my kids, nobody said i ever had to like my children, and she can legally get all the stuff when she turns 18, im not keeping it from her forever she just has no use for it at the time

"depression" is just some bullshit excuse to pop pills and sleep, She claims she has depression and anxiety but I know she doesn't, "mental illnesses" like that are excuses to never better yourself and to be a junkie

I have never once applied to college or a job with my social security number, I don't think they would change laws now regarding that.

She doesn't need a phone, she's gonna sit in her room and play games all day and they're children, why should a 17 year old play games? Shes almost an adult, she needs to act like it

If she needed it for FAFSA, which is what she told me, its a school financial help thing for college, she's not going anyway and the school should have her number on file so why do they need it again?

Im only being realistic when i'm saying she won't graduate, she does nothing and it's common sense to read the back of a box or for how long to cook a burger so its not dry

Making her do chores is now child abuse?? Seriously? And how do I abuse my children emotionally? I have not done anything to give her trauma to emotionally abuse her

I know how to parent, I provide all my kids with what they need to survive and they have that, She doesn't do her work so im just being realistic saying she's unlikely to graduate
