My daddy thinks he is so strict. About 6 or 7 months ago, based on the misguided advice of my best friends FANATIC mother, my daddy decided that threatening a "WHOOPIN" everytime I back talk him, which is quite often, is "parenting".
However, he rarely ever really gives one of these "WHOOPINS" and it's not really that bad when he does, so I am not even afraid of it!. So anyways I called his bluff today and said you're not going to do it anyways so WHO CARES? and it's all because I am a girl and you are afraid to to hurt me and you know it.
He then called me SPOILED ROTTEN and told me to forget about my allowance for 2 weeks, which is UNFAIR. My older sister, who thinks I am EXTREMELY SPOILED, told daddy that he really should give me a WHOOPIN and was like I TOLD YOU SO, Lori does not listen because you never follow through. I told her to SHUT UP, so she asked daddy for permission to WHIP MY BUTT, and he said no, it's a parents job and sheepishly walked out of the room.

Then my sister was like, "this is why I hate coming home from school because Lori seems to run this house." Then my daddy and sister got in a big argument. There is so much tension here I can hardly wait to go away to school.

My mother is deceased, which is why she is not mentioned. Thank you and good day.

Ducky - the question is EXTREMELY clear.
"What would you do if your rather spoiled teenage daughter finally called your bluff?"

Hey Lori, thanks for the best answer before.
I know you most likely don't want to hear this, but I think you should apologies. Your father must be having such a difficult time raising you and your siblings on his own, as well as missing your mother.
Remember your sister is only stay for a short period of time. Just remain civil.
When you feel a fight or argument coming on, just excuse yourself and go up to you room or go for a walk.
Parents must teach us what is right and what is wrong. I'm sure your Dad thinks he is doing the best job he can, but sometimes thinks he would be better to just give up. Try and help him and support him.
Have a good day

If I had a teenage daughter, I would not bluff so there would be no bluff to call.
You dad was not being unfair by taking your allowance for two weeks; you were insolent and need to respect your father by not talking back.
He's probably under a lot of pressuring raising girls alone. I am not saying that he should threaten you with "whoopins" but he's probably at his wits end and doesn't know what else to do.

Uggh. Some people just don't get it!
How many more weeks are you here? Like 2, right? That is really unfair.
But what I don't see is how this is all your fault here. Jillian started it! She didn't have to bug you like that.
My advice would be to avoid being threatened for the next two weeks, and if you do get threatened, do NOT mention that he never follows through. And then, remember one good thing about boarding school: your daddy will NOT fly back from the middle east to give you a "whoopin."
Good luck!!

What is the point of this question? I should say what is the question? Yes your father has issues taking a stand against either you or you sister but you do not have any problems you are just a teen. Get over it and please save time and space for people with questions.
As far as I can see the matter here is that you just are not happy that someone is finally parenting you and your sister. Allowance being taken away is the first step. (I don't beleive in giving allowance in the first place as children get spoiled, such as your case). You do not need to be using these boards as complaint time.

Well, I don't bluff so there would be nothing to call. What I say goes and I always follow through. My kids know that and make their decisions accordingly and are by no means spoiled. That's not to say that my teens don't misbehave , but they are never surprised when a punishment is carried out. What's more, they are pretty well behaved and responsible so they get a lot of priveleges and I truly enjoy being around them.

When you grow up, you will realize there is a connection between how you act, and how people react to that. Only it won't be your allowance - it will be your job, or your relationships that you lose because of it. And that will be a whole lot more painful than just losing your allowance, or even being put over your daddy's knee. Being spoiled isn't cute - it just looks stupid that you aren't appreciative of what your family gives you.

I wouldn't have a spoiled kid so I don't know how to answer specifically, but I will say, while you certainly may get away with being spoiled, you have been given no favor at all. It's a tough world out there, that for now you are sheltered from, but the storm is about to hit.

First of all if you were my daughter, you would of never have spoke to me that way. Because I would have raised you better than that. You are a very spoiled brat! You will also have problems finding a young man to love you for who you are, because your rude and selfish. So daddy took away your allowance and you think its unfair. How about taking everything you enjoy too? ipod, mp3 player, tv, cell phone, car, all your bratty expensive clothes. How about leaving your bedroom stripped of everythng except a mattress and blanket and two sets of gross clothes which you have to wash every other day? How about no make up? Because if you were my daughter (I have a daughter) I would take everything you owned and enjoyed away until I felt you deserved to get it back, and I would only give a little at a time. You selfish bratt. Your poor mother, God rest her soul. You are doing your mother's memory a great injustice. Grow up!

Your poor father to have two girls like youunder his roof. About the only time my mother spanked or slapped was for sassing, so I know it's a serious matter. A father should not be spanking a teenage daughter, tho. That should be Mom's job.
I agree with him withholding your allowance for at least two weeks. I hope he has the guts to follow thru with it. You're turning your home into a battle ground and you need to be stopped.

wow, your dad is way too nice to you. My dad would have spanked me, right after the first warning was given. My dad didn't mess around with a few quick swats either. My dad would spank my bare bottom with his hand or belt for a good few minutes which seemed like forever to me! My dad never was abusive, just strict and never did hurt me, just left me with a sore backside for a few hours. I think you dad should follow through, every time and believe me your attitude will change very fast. Not that you want to hear that...but then again maybe your dad will read this.
