[quote=Anonymous]Have a heart to heart talk with her. Let her know it's ok to express disappointment & sadness. My teen said he didn't want to complain about anything because he knows people are having legit problems i.e. unemployment, illness, death of a loved one. I told him it's ok to feel whatever he is feeling and fine to vent at home.

IDK hat she is into, but here are a few ideas.

Home spa day or give each other makeovers. College DD and I did this. She's better at hair & makeup than I am, but it was fun.

We walk and take pictures of interesting roadside trash for our collage. This week we found a baby shoe, a birthday balloon and a little plastic Elmo.

A pet? Fish if you aren't interested in a less contained animal.

If she is artsy, try a new medium. Clay, jewelry making, Bob Ross kit. We even went back to childhood with finger painting and friendship bracelets.

You said you have an elderly relative in your home. Would she like to start genealogy or a family history?[/quote]
