[quote=Anonymous]I can still make my mother and my sister laugh by looking at them and screaming "LEAVE ME ALOONNNNEEE!" Because that was pretty much all I said to them from about age 13 to 16. :-) Totally normal, OP. It's only just begun, but it will pass eventually. If you can try not to engage at the same emotional volume, you'll save yourself a few years of treatment for hypertension and possibly see her turnaround (however temporarily) sooner. And if you can honestly look at your expectations and revise them incrementally to show good faith, that could be helpful. A slightly later curfew, a lot more privacy, a lot less required family time - teens need space. [/quote]
