rifatheroffour Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 WHY? That's all for now. Since the one I'd really like to have this discussion with is not here... I wish all of you in the same boat the best of luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julester3 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 All girls are different. My 17 yo is still a pain in the ass and I was hoping she'd mellow out. My 13 yo is not sassy but she fights with her sister enough. The bickering is exhausting. I think it's testing the new boundaries at 15 - drivers ed and high school is heavily influencing sadly.

Lisa Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I was impossible at 17. And I had both parents alive and together. Hang in there!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trying2breathe Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Girl moods & sass, know it well. DD is now 18 and thankfully has outgrown a very dark stage. I would have easily traded in ages 16 & 17 for what she is now. Just know that this too shall pass ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sojourner Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Hear ya and feeling it. On my part, trying to deal with 17 yr old daughter, full of teen angst, knows it all, but also is borderline intellectually plus clinically depressed, which affects her insight into any and all social and other perceptions. It's been really ugly lately. Very dark days. Tonight's special was how she doesn't want to live with me and hasn't since Dad died, 3 years next week. (I get it- he was the "fun" parent, after all. Now they're stuck with the practical one, and under harder circumstances. Sigh.) Hang in there. For me, anyway, it can be hard to look at it as a phase, complicated by death/grief/lifestyle changes, when it hits you at your very heart. Some day this will pass. Peace to you.
