[quote=Anonymous]OP, hang in there. Remember that saying nothing is often a great response and always better than a bad one said in the heat of the moment. Pick your battles and make sure to not only notice the positive, but let her know you notice the positive: "I'm so proud of you for xyz", "it was so mature of you to xyz", "you should be proud of yourself for xyz", etc. They light up when you do this but they seems to have a longer memory for the unintentional criticism so try to make these positive remarks frequent and genuine. And yes, these are just hard years no matter what, I think, but they will pass. [/quote]
