[quote=Anonymous]It’s so developmentally typical, OP, though it hurts. It’s almost surprising it took her until 15 for things like this to happen. Lisa Damour advises telling kids they can be friendly, polite, or ask for space. This might be the latter. You can definitely call it out (“ouch” “not okay”) and having your husband say something is a great idea. And I agree that you can’t stay quiet for risk of her going off on you, because that’s developmentally normal for adolescents, too. It’s how their brains develop. Obviously it doesn’t make it okay, but I think it’s important to know.[/quote]
