[quote=Anonymous]The next time she asks you to do something for her (e.g., drive her somewhere, buy something for her, etc.) you reply simply and calmly, "I'm sorry but I have better things to do" and just go on with your day. No yelling, no lectures, no silent treatment after that. I'm not sure what kind of questions you're asking her and when, for example my 16 yo DD isn't much in the mood to talk in the morning on the way to school, and in the afternoon as soon as I pick her up, if I ask the usual how was school today, anything interesting happen, etc. she's not interested in those questions and I'll get "fine" or "boring" and that's it. But that's totally normal for teens. And later on after she's gotten home, had a snack, chilled out a bit, she'll be in a better mood to talk. [/quote]
