Do you have a Drama Queen/King in your family?

[Pembo]

Ds#1 has a bad cold but you'd think he was dying the way he is acting. Last week he banged his arm and he couldn't do anything with it for a couple days. Funny that playing gameboy wasn't a problem though.

So do you have a drama queen in your familY?????

 

[Annie&Hallie'sMom]

Yup, and you're looking at her.

 

[Beauty]

Yes! My best friend, twin sister, Lisa! OMG! She is the most dramatic thing you will ever see! She and her DH are moving and we had given them a stove that we aren't using. Well John, my DH decided to get up yesterday morning and go ahead and get the stove out of the garage and sit it on the driveway. Well of course you would assume when they came to pick it up they would have come inside...WRONG! We notice the stove is gone. Last night she calls "are yall mad at us or something??" "

"NO, Why would we be mad at yall?"

"well the stove was sitting outside and all!"

HELLO!! I swear she could be dramatic about a box of crackers!

Both of my kids. If they think they can get out of school or going to bed early, you'd think they were on their last breath. When they're really sick though, they're completely different.

What amazes me is they can barely scratch themselves on something and need a bandaid. But if they REALLY need a covering over a big boo boo, they wouldn't wear a bandaid if their life depended on it.

That would be my MIL. She's not happy unless there is suffering all around her. She had a knee replaced last January (2002) and refused to attempt to drive or go out, except for therapy, until May. The more she milked it, the more people pitied her. She even had the priest come to her house to give her communion because she couldn't go to church for 5 months.

She loved when my BIL got divorced. She got to wallow in his sorrow so much, but she didn't know anything that was going on in his life. The only person he'd talk to about it was me.

At our wedding, she needed to be "represented" by her brother because she is divorced and won't date anyone else, but she thought she needed a "date" for our wedding. When people see our wedding photos, they ask if the man standing with us in the picture with MIL is my FIL. I explain, no, it is Uncle Nick who was representing my MIL that day.

I could go on, but won't bore you.

Drama Queen, Weirdo Extraordinaire, if you ask me.

My SIL takes the cake of being a drama queen. She drives me up the wall

 

[Blondie]

My SIL, my DH's sister.

Nobody has it worse or better than she does. She will try and out talk everyone in the room by raising her voice so loudly that you can't help but stop and let her have the floor. Needless to say, she is my least favorite SIL and I have 5 of them!

 

[Keli]

I have always called my dd a drama queen but she doesn't have some of the negative traits others have mentioned in speaking of folks they consider to be drama queens.
Ashli is full of enthusiasm over ANYTHING. She gets excited when the street light turns green for heavens sake, lol. If something happens and she's going to tell others about it she always acts it out. She is one of the best charades players you've ever seen, she's not too embarrassed to act any part out and gives everything the full treatment. In her personal, everyday life she puts a lot of drama into everything too. When she's happy she glows, it oozes out of every pore and by the same token if she's upset it is absolutely the end of the world, lol. Thankfully she has a naturally cheerful disposition so our world only tetters on the edge of anilation once or twice a week, lol.
Except when things really are bad, then Ashli calms way down. This week when her bf was leaving to go to war she was exceptionally calm and spent all her time comforting everyone else.

Most definately! DD (almost 16) in fact, that is her nickname! She can make any little thing into a MAJOR thing. Those chicks in Hollywood have nothing on her!

Not that she's pain or anything, it just makes life more interesting!!

 

[dizneenut]

I can be a pretty good Drama Queen myself!

Mine would have to be oldest DS. If he gets sick, you'd think he was dying the way he whines and complains.

 

[Wendy]

Yep! My 3 year old niece is known to EVERYONE as the Drama Queen. If you're in a room with her for more than 5 minutes, you'll know exactly why.

 

[DiznEeyore]

Yup -- ds, age 10. He's been doing this act since, oh, BIRTH.

 

[catsrule]

Yes, Cali the Cal Girl whines about everything. Simba barely touches her and she yells.

 

[KimRaye]

Well, DD is like Keli's DD. Ironically, DD is named Kelly, too!

I, myself, as a child, was very often called Sarah Bernhardt!! Not sure of the spelling but, trust me, I've seen this actress only once and, I was never THAT BAD!!!

 

[tkd lisa]

Yep, it's my DD's middle name (lol)! When she gets sick, she's DYING! It doesn't help that she does spike very high fevers (usually starting around 103 sometimes as high as 105.

A few weeks ago, she fell off her chair in music class and slammed down onto her elbow. She was convinced that it was broken and claimed she couldn't bend it. I picked her up from school and took her to prompt care for an xray. Once the xray showed it wasn't broken, she INSISTED that they were wrong, and that she needed a splint. After about 50 minutes of her screaming about it (try ignoring that in a closed van!), she changed her story and decided she needed a sling. I said "But you have to bend your arm to use a sling." She said, okay and bent it right away! ARGGGGGG! For this, I missed 3 hours of work and a pretty important meeting!

But she's been that way since birth. Things are wonderful or miserable. Life is never dull in our house!

My son is the drama king... just now it was a chore to get out of bed... (I Cant!), take a bath (the water is just too cold), getting cereal... (I must have a bigger bowl), complaints on the amount of cereal (not enough), and now the sandwich is peanut butter.. for his lunch...


Funny, though, he eats peanut butter when home, jumps out of bed when he wants to, and the bath was never cold before

 

[Margie J]

OMG, that's my Mom. Her life is a drama. Even when she leaves phone messages she sounds like she's about to pass out. She loves to tell everyone about her ailments and meds yet doesn't have much sympathy for anyone elses problems. She's often late to functions and seems to get "sick" on every major Holiday. It creates drama for the rest of us too.

 

[Mom2Em]

I have a family of Drama Queens... My Mother, my sister and my DD... Everything is either a tragedy or the best thing that ever happened to them!! With DD, it isn't as bad... yet... Mom is OK but Sister will create dramatic situations

It's a male thing - they always get colds/flu etc. so much worse than anyone else. No really, it's true... I mean it... my DH told me so...

 

[BibbidiBobbidiBOO]

Would be my mom ! Every headache is a brain tumor, indigestion is a heart attack(she has even been to ER with this on several occasions), and her stress is going to cause cancer ! I will not believe her when one of these pans out ! She is pitiful these days. DD can over react too ! Hope she is not taking after her Grandma !
