[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I only wish my super-independent 14 year old DD would ask for a tuck-in. She won't let me hug or touch her, and half the time when I walk into her room (and I knock and wait for her to acknowledge me) she literally hisses like a cat at me. She is such a prickly cactus. She was snuggly and affectionate when she was younger, but then adolescence hit and I became persona non grata. When she is nice to me and actually wants to talk to me it is like the heavens open and the angels sing. (Mind you, she is polite to every single other non-parent adult in her life -- they universally rave about how wonderful she is. She saves all the drama and angst for me instead.) My 11 year old dd is the opposite -- at least for now -- and my oldest, 16 year old ds, is affectionate too (although not snuggly). [/quote] Middle child. Keep trying. She wants you to. [/quote]
