O no WAY are you alone. It's amazing how self centred they are. AMAZING. I think my DD has said/done everything you posted at least 500 times. She still thinks the world revolves around her....
revolves around her? oh yeahhhh that....

I had to restrain myself talking to my DD today, I restricted myself to the words 'thoughtless & inconsiderate' - I could have thrown a whole lot more in there as well The total disregard for anyone else... kills me.

I really do think though that there is a certain inability to see or feel anything from another person's viewpoint. I kind of remember being a bit like that myself. (surely not this bad, lol) I think it's age related, not a personality trait (at this age anyhoo).

So no, you are sooo not alone...
ummm, as for how to deal with it *shrug* .... you know how everyone always says babies don't come with an instruction manual? well I think babies are waaaay easier than teenagers. I'm winging it
