[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't say anything about her behavior. I would talk to her about what she's going through, express empathy, maybe do something special with her. Emphasize that your proud of her regardless of her job search. Help her feel better, she'll treat others better. It's hard to celebrate someone else's success when you are going through a rough patch. Yes, it's petty, but even adults have a hard time. Praise any positive interactions you see between the two![/quote] This is horrible parenting advice at any age. It sends the message that her behavior is acceptable, which it is not, regardless of what she is going through. She is an adult. You don't really get to discipline her anymore, but that doesn't mean you can't express your disappointment. [/quote]
