[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the father of a 14 year old who just entered HS. She is an only child and we have always been close. In fact, when she was younger, she could hardly wait to go out with me and run errands. Now, in the last few weeks, she wants to spend no time with me, resents it when I check up on her, and generally has zero interest in even throwing a ball around in the backyard. So is our relationship pretty much dead except for giving her money when she needs it? I feel like I have been sent out to pasture.[/quote] Tell her you'll give her money if you can take her to a no-cell-phone brunch this weekend. Tell her she's got to answer 20 questions at brunch (let her talk you down to 12 or 15). [/quote] Way to get her to resent you. [/quote]
