[quote=Anonymous]I think you and DD need to sit down (when she is in a good mood) and discuss boundaries and respect. This respect will go both ways and tell her that as she grows and shows you she can handle responsibility, she can earn it (such as privacy, etc.) Other than that, is there stuff you guys can do together that she would be into? Maybe if you had a weekly or bi-weekly activity (pedicures, coffee, movie, tv show) that you did together, you would only be in her business when it really mattered, as a parent, and not a friend. When she insults you, tell her she's crossed that respect boundary and you're not going to talk to her until she's ready to calm down. This goes both ways. No yelling from you. [/quote]
