[quote=Anonymous]One more example. I drove her and a best friend around the other day. They were both texting the same group chat.

Well, I can tell my DD is about to have zero chill, zero time to think. And start texting someone back a comment insinuating someone in the group likes someone else. (It may be true but doesn’t need to be hinted). DD thought she was being vague enough. Ugh. No.

I couldn’t see the texts (because I am driving). But I can tell she’s saying aloud what she’s typing. And her friend starts to say, “no Larla!”

I can tell it’s bad idea to just type and hit send. At least think about it. At least confer with your friend sitting next to you. At least.. don’t get in people’s business. Just don’t say anything! No one is asking you.

Dd is about to hit send, and both me and the friend are saying “no larla! Nooo.”

She deleted, didn’t send. But I’m suggesting that even her friend is telling her to quiet down.

This isn’t my kid usually :( I have a feeling she can learn the hard way and alienate 10 friends as once. **Or if you have a suggestion for a way for her to see the light, I’d appreciate it.

If it keeps going, I am going to take the phone for a time. As I said, she’s going to take a break this afternoon. She hasn’t done anything “wrong.” It’s very contextual and gray about her causing drama.
