[quote=Anonymous]OP, first and foremost let me say you’re doing a great job. Second, how about taking a mom and daughter outing, with some quiet time and ASK her what she doesn’t want to talk about and ask her to help you understand what she’s thinking and feeling. Reassure her that she has voice in this. That while neither you nor her can stop everything that’s coming, you are absolutely on her side to make sure she gets through it safely, with as little embarrassment as possible and without losing her sense of self. And that if she would feel more comfortable talking about/getting advice from someone else, you’re open to suggestions of family/friends/or identifying the best professional. Also explain some of the same things you did to us. That’s she’s been your most open and affectionate child to date and you’d hate to see her lose that just because of biology.[/quote]
