[quote=Anonymous]This is pretty typical teen behavior, so you are not alone. The best advice is to not take her bait and get angry. Set up consequences for bad behavior - being rude or not doing chores. Make it clear and then enforce what you set up. But don't get drawn into drama. Also don't be unreasonable with punishments. A day or two without a phone is plenty. And pick your battles. She doesn't need to be perfect. And then, build up your relationship and common ground with her. Do things with her, listen to her, spend time with her. Let her talk and just listen.[/quote]
