[quote=Anonymous]Have you tried really listening to her side of things? Not because you will change your mind- but so that you can take her into account next time? I think this is the age where girls start to realize they want a say in what they do. So make her feel heard. “We’re doing this trip, and I need you on board, but can we talk about what you would have rather done? Can we find a way to incorporate that into our next trip?” So maybe not Hawaii- but have her help with picking an activity or a place or a hotel for the next one. Whatever she’s into. If it’s social media, there are a ton of social media popular restaurants that would be easy to add to a trip. She’s being a jerk now, but the best way to prevent that in the future may be to give her a bit more control. [/quote]
