[QUOTE="lisa3girls, post: 401165, member: 10927"] and contrary about everything?? My conversation today with 16 yo about upcoming college recruiting weekend for equestrians.... Me: We are staying in the Marriott next weekend in xxxx town Her: OK, why not the host hotel? Me: point, marriott free Her: OK at this point I am thinking cool, decent conversation Than me: M, since your riding coach is now a judge for college equestrian why don't you ask her to give you some ....... Her: Don't your remember I told you, I am GOING with her to one. Me: Ok Her: You know, during my Feb break from school Me: Ok, but that is AFTER your recruiting weekend Her: So????? I KNOW everything about it, I read about it anway, I know what to do, what they want Me: Well, ok, but I just thought maybe that since.... Her: I KNOW!!!! I READ about it!! The ..... is where she butts in and talks over me before I even SAY what I mean to say--- she does this ALL the time. Then- she was driving (she has a permit) and this is how it went: Me: You are too far to the right, getting in the snow...please move left Her: I KNOWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!! Me: Ok, I am trying to help you learn, you need to keep your right....... Her: I KNOW, (now mocking tone)...I NEED to keep my right tires in the road blah blah rant Me: Ok, but you were speeding up, and that is when..... Her: I DIDN'T MEAN to SPEED UP!!! Me: Ok, it doesn't matter if you meant to, but you did and so the reason why.... Her: I know why, you don't have to tell me everything! Me: Actually I am teaching you right now and if I perceive you did something that you shouldn't, I need to tell you and you need to listen and not argue.... Her: But I KNOW, I am NOT arguing..... sigh [/QUOTE]
