My 3 year old hates me
Ok, not really. But do you remember a couple of weeks ago when she called me out ON THE AIR about eating the last cupcake in the house?
It happened again this morning, but LET ME EXPLAIN.
On Father’s Day Sandy and Leah baked a rhubarb cake for me. One of my faves. Just like my mom used to make. Anyways, I’ve been killing it the last few days. Rhubarb cake has been my chaser for everything. This morning, what did you think I had for breakfast? That’s right, the LAST PIECE of rhubarb cake.
Well, Leah was less than pleased. She yells, “DADDY, you’re supposed to share!” stomping out of the room to go pout in her playroom.
Keep in mind, she didn’t even EAT any of this delicious treat that was made FOR ME on Father’s Day. She smothered it in red frosting and ate THAT, disregarding the actual cake.
I pointed this out to her, but, much like her mother, at times it’s hard to have a rational conversation.
So there you go. My home is a war zone once again thanks to my love of baked goods. And I don’t care what anyone says, I DID NOTHING WRONG HERE! I suppose I should start figuring out what kind of gift would be suitable to blackmail her make up for this.

Don’t get her a gift. Why should you if you did nothing wrong? Maybe you’re supposed to share, but maybe she shouldn’t be pissed about something if she didn’t really want it in the first place. I’m guessing throwing fits in your house amounts to a decent amount of spoiling, even if all logic is thrown out the window.

It was your friggin’ cake!!! You can eat the whole darn thing if you choose to. You & Sandy need to stop spoiling Leah NOW, before it’s too late and grows up to be a pig-headed brat! Do you want her treating other people that badly? Get rid of your mangina and grow a set, man! It’s in your daughter’s best interest. Plus, I’m pretty sure I’ve heard Sandy mention you guys are trying to have another child??? How will your little royal princess treat the new baby?

You said “Mangina”. Huh-huh…
She’s nowhere near a brat. Believe me. She’s a great kid. And incredibly sweet. And I know you don’t believe this, but neither one of us spoil her. I just thought it was funny that she was trying to pull the whole “Daddy needs to make good” bit again.

i think its cute she is all *daddy your suppose to share* she is learning that sharing is what people do, so she has a vaild reason to be mad with you. all and all tomorrow morning she will most likely forget that you even ate the laast piece of cake, shes three years old. give her a cookie or cupcake and she will be happy as can be again.

Danger - No matter what anyone says, a small gift to make good with Leah over the gift would do no harm, however, if you made a habit out if it, then you would see trouble in it. Maybe pick up a single cupcake or something for her in place of that ONE piece of cake that you had every right to.
Amber - Maybe you should lay off the criticism. The girl is 3. It’s a cake. It’s not like she’s a teenager and this is over something ’serious’. Just because she wanted to share the last piece of cake does not mean she’s a spoiled little brat. Danger and Sandy are good parents, how they raise their daughter is absolutely NO concern of yours. Don’t put down a sweet little girl when you have no idea who the people are that you are putting down.
Sandy - Sweetie don’t worry about what other think, I know it’s hard. You are a good mom and Leah is a sweetheart. Your stories are wonderful and It’s nice to listen to the stories you tell about her as she grows up. Have fun, SPOIL HER, and cherish these years. People like Amber should mean nothing to you. Besides sweetie, just think, if she’s always putting you down in Danger’s blogs, do we sense a little bit of jealousy??? She wants your man, go get her!!!

Danger ~ I never said she IS a brat. I said she will grow up to be one if you let her think it’s okay to boss you around now at the age of 3. I do believe she’s a sweet little girl - most of them are. I’m speaking from experience as I have a now 17-yr-old stepson who is rotten because his mother and father allowed him to rule the roost from the day he as born. No offense intended and would never call a child that name to her face. Please have Sandy read my comment again.

It’s all love Amber. More than anything, I appreciate your reading the blog, listening to 98 PXY, and having a passionate opinion. I’ll never complain about a cat fight in the comment section!

listen if u give into everything now while she is 3.. then when she turns 16 shes gonna whine and cry for a hummer or some 100,000 dollar vehicle. she is gonna realize that when she dosnt get her own way, the only thing she has to do is whine and she gets a gift… dont worry she will forget it in less than 48hours. she loves you no matter what… she is 3. if you wanna make something up to her.. why dont you and her make a new cake together to split.. ??
