[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP. No, I am not going to cut her off. It was indeed late and the thought that maybe she was out drinking with friends crossed my mind. I mean I know she was mad that I wouldn’t let her go when it occurred, and angry after as well, but I suspect the PP who said girls wind each other up is probably right. I haven’t texted her back figuring she needed space. She has texted me. Maybe she really is angry or maybe she is embarrassed, I don’t know. I think there is some validity to Covid setting her back maturity-wise. The kids missed out on a lot of typical teen developmental stuff, navigating social situations and the like. It is very hurtful, with all the terrible things out there that parents do, to be lumped in the category of horrible parent. I’m certainly not perfect, but I think anyone would be hard-pressed to call me controlling and terrible. I don’t know. It makes me sad that this is how she thinks of me but I am also not sure what I can do about that perception at this point except to prove her wrong by not replying and giving her the space she says she wants. "no I won't cut her off" You are the problem not her. You failed as a parent over and over again. Your "kid" is on a trip of a lifetime that you paid for. Just like the phone she has, clothes she wears, and everything else. Your kid has zero respect for you, and you feed into it all day everyday. Why in the world do you pay for her phone? You are an ATM great job OP [/quote][/quote] Your parents did that to you and this is how you turned out, right? So bitter.[/quote]
