Irritated

So, I'm a little irritated right now and instead of causing more hate and discontent by be catty and posting something on FB page I'm just going to write here. We had a GS meeting tonight, and the troop has dwindled down to 4 girls per my previous post. However, I've been noticing more and more lately that my co-leaders daughter gets pretty much whatever the hell she wants. WTF is up with that? All the girls have to stand outside in the cold and sell cookies--she cries and throws a fit and gets to go sit in the car. All the girls have to share their art projects they did, she gets extremely rude and disrespectful and says NO so her mom does it for her. Pretty much if she doesn't want to do it, she doesn't have to. I'm considered the "mean leader"--shocking, I know, lol--but that is because I don't sugar coat anything. I tell them how it is and how it's going to be and what the consequences are going to be if it's not done EXACTLY that way. Yeah, little miss prissy there does NOT like that at all! To that I say--TOO BAD! I told them all a couple weeks ago that from now on if they showed up anywhere GS related without there vests I would be personally removing a patch that they earned from their vest. If any of us adults were required to wear a uniform to work and kept showing up without it repeatedly we would be punished, right? She was none to happy with that--said the vest was too hot, it itched, it wasn't comfortable--again TOO BAD! Tonight I told them that while they were selling cookies they would STAND (OMG what a flippin concept!) SMILE and BE HAPPY oh and NOT complain or I would take away credits from them and money would be deducted from their cookie accounts. Seriously--if any of us showed up to work, complained to our boss' the whole time, sat or slouched on the job and asked every 5mins if it was time to go yet what do we think would happen to us? They are 10yrs old--old enough to take and accept responsibilty--I'm not asking them to do manual labor for 8-9hrs a day in the blistering heat--they are standing there asking people to buy friggin' cookies! AND earning 88cents a box for their accounts for field trips and what not at the same time. And typical day we rake in about 500 boxes--after dividing that among the girls and how long they are out there, on an average they can make $110 for 3hrs of doing NOTHING! UGH! I just so tired of the complaining from this one girl who is lazy and would rather sit in her room on her laptop or in front of the tv and eat ALL DAY then actually be outside doing something physical. And the icing on the cake today was when she yelled at my kid. My daughter was asking her a question for a project they were working on and the other girl told Skyler to shut-up and stop talking to her and that she was bothering her. Yeah, I stepped in. I said no she wasn't, she was asking you a question about what you are SUPPOSED to be doing--so quit complainging and picking on her and get to work, NOW! Yup, I was mean to a ten year old--whatever, don't fuck with my kid!
