DD 15 is a bit of an oversharer

[Anonymous]

Cyberbulling. Is that a virtual bull ride like in Urban Cowboy?

Uh oh, I sure hope OP's DD hasn't been "silenced" in some extreme manner! OP has vibes that actually give me sincere unease about what was done to "resolve" the issue. I hope OP's DD is fine and still feels able to talk about whatever she wants to or needs to, with a reliable trusted adult. Whether it's OP or someone else.

You seem to have a specific idea for some terrible thing that OP did to her daughter. I'm so curious: what is it?

Not OP but my daughter is exactly like this and I’m starting to wonder if I should just tell her to shut it!

+1 my autistic daughter has done this her whole life. Even as an adult she has to be reminded we don’t talk about some bodily
Issues at the table.

OP here. I chose to not go into detail about my daughter's over-sharing in order to protect her privacy. "How do I teach my daughter to not share overly personal factoids" isn't really a "big question". So no, not a troll, but thanks for asking, I guess?

There’s a difference between sharing friend drama vs her period symptoms or BOB preferences. Dont be obtuse.

Agree with everyone that you are being ridiculous, OP. If you are not a troll, you absolutely deserve being accused of being one.

My DD14 tells me everything. I joke that the moment the car door slams, she says "So in first period...." and does. not. stop. until she's through her club meetings and sports. Then she tells me about additional teen, tiktok, etc. drama. Then basically every thought that enters her head about everything and everybody. It can be tedious. Sometimes I have to take a work call or interact with my other child. But it is not oversharing. She's not telling me anything inappropriate nor does she have anything inappropriate to tell.

So WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? You don't have to give explicit details but no indication of the topic is suspect.

OP is ghosting us. In other words, definite troll.

That said, PP kudos, whatever's happening in your family, you are really lucky. Many of us can't get our kids to talk about their days in detail at all, all we get unless we ask more specific questions is "It was fine" and that's it. And some still don't get more details even when they do ask specific questions. I can understand your DD may get a bit tiresome to listen to every thought that crosses her mind, but seriously, enjoy it. Most in this Tween/Teen forum have the opposite problem and it's a lot harder to solve.

Not a troll, as previously mentioned. I just have other things in my life that need attending to. I wasn't aware that having a life outside of this website would considered unusual.

And yes, I realize oversharing isn't the worst thing my child could possibly do, it's not like she's into the drugs! It's just . . . inconvenient at times. And disturbing. That's all!

Once again: NOT. A. TROLL.

Ok, but you're not telling us what it is. So, tell her to stop. Tune her out. See one day she won't want to share with you. Are you ok with that?

Bad news everyone, I’m scrolling through this thread and OP seems to have long 86ed.
