I thought scouts sewed their own badges, part of the deal of being a scout. Anyway . . . A bit of screaming on your missus' part will put the kybosh on any rational discussion about your deal, so from her point of view "mission accomplished". The status quo continues.

She seems like a bitch. Tell her to sew the damn badges herself.

The W was unusually bitchy today. I stayed home from work today - I'm recovering from diverticulitis. The girls are on summer break. They probably won't see their Girl Scout friends until the fall, yet W decides I need to sew patches on their sashes. TODAY. I resisted and the screaming began. I went back to bed. When she came in there screaming, I told her "I don't negotiate with emotional terrorists." That shut her up for a while. It felt good to say to her. I think I'll go back to work tomorrow whether I feel like it or not. If you didn't say: "They don't need the stinking Badges" You are simply wasting everyone's time.

My daughter asked help on selling her girl scout cookies for her at my work. Gosh, that was horrible. I deserve badges! Then I'll burn them.

Who still sews on badges? Keep a roll of that iron on Web stuff or fabric glue handy, then present her with ' job done". She is free to add stitches as she feels the need. A day spent in the local library or your car sounds preferable to a day spent with her at home. She is definitely being an emotional terrorist here and an inconsiderate bully. Bearing in mind the uniforms won't be required any time soon, it's an unreasonable req...order.

I think I'll go back to work tomorrow whether I feel like it or not. I could tell stories about sewing, however, I like the TODAY part. Interesting how well trained we can get in a marriage. Jump? Yes dear, how high? Then comes the day when the FOG lifts and we respond, "today,... NO!" Then they demand to know why, so they can manipulate it even further. Once you use there same SM logic against them, answers like, "because I say it doesn't have to be today", or "I'm just not ready for that, I don't see the need for it, that's not important to me". They don't like it! That shuts them up for a while . They just lost a % of control. BRAVO!

I sewed my own Girl Scout badges on my sash. That was part of the pride of earning them.
