[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a PP. I am just finishing a good cry over how horrible this day has spiraled. DD, who is a tween, has day off from school (not spring break for them) and had been complaining lately she never gets asked to do things with friends, so I arranged to take three of her friends (she picked who) to one of those indoor adventure parks. All of them super excited. And it was fun, lots to do, running around, exercise, no screen time, laughs, etc. but on the long drive back her complaining started. By the time I dropped off the last girl at her house she was hysterical crying about something random, so I came home rather than do errands so she could rest as she seemed over tired. When we got home she complained it wasn't fun, I wasn't nice, and she had a horrible time. I told her to go to her room and take a nap, and now I'm crying out of frustration. I am not a pushover. I have tried absolutely every approach over the years. Gone to classes. Had a parenting coach. Had her tested with a developmental ped to see if something else going on. Read every book. Nothing wrong with her. Nothing changes. She just hates me and being a part of this family no matter what. When she turns 18 she's probably going to run out the front door and never come back and tell everyone how mean we were to her when all I tried to do was love her and give her what she needed. I am so sad.[/quote] Please don't take this so personally. It's called "hormones,"[/quote]
