[quote=Anonymous]I feel for both you and your daughter. If her attitude is ongoing, think about rebuilding your relationship with her.
It seems broken.

I gave my parents a similar experience from about 14--20 years old. I was miserable to live with....attitude... Snarkiness..grumpiness.
.eyerolling... Blah!!!!

Reality was I was really lonely. I was painfully shy and suffered tremendously and school and social settings. I held it together at school but fell apart at home. My mother wasn't at all understanding or compassionate about my shyness which affected so much of my interaction with my family members.  I was unpleasant to be around and they made it clear by treating me badly. I remember my mother sitting with my older sister at night and hearing them talking and giggling together. I was lucky if my mother paused at my room to say goodnight.  I felt I didn't deserve to be loved but I didn't know how to change.

Love story short, try reconnecting with your daughter. She could be very stressed about dealing with growing up
 Rebuild the relationship. It will take time..... Months and months of calmness but it will be worth it.[/quote]
