[quote=Anonymous]It’s great that you are getting help and that you realize you need to reset your relationship. I think you can tell her that, and talk about it with her, when you are both calm and relaxed. You need to find out what SHE feels like, though, once you’ve had a chance to explain about depression and apologize. She should talk and you should listen, and then try again another day. Little bits at a time. She needs to know that puberty starts affecting her hormone-wise before she realizes it. You need to set out your boundaries and she needs to know what they are, because you’re the parent. It’s hard to be the child of a parent who has struggled, and kids think it is all about them, and she likely has sadness and guilt and anger and anxiety. I would look into some family counseling sessions and/or a parenting class. This can be fixed. [/quote]
