[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She announced how she felt at 12 and that has not changed. She is not one to conform and do as told. I would not attempt discussing this with her for a few years yet. [/quote] This. That is a pretty strong dislike, for whatever reason OP. It may be minor or may be the emotional functioning of a 12 year old and the intellect of an 18 year old. Jsut give her some space, send her gifts for birthday and christmas (or whatever major gift holiday you celebrate) and don't try to force anything else. Teenagers need space to do their thing. I have a niece who doesn't seem to like me, partially I think it is a personality clash and the fact that SIL doesn't like me for reasons I can't quite put my finger on. Lots of venting to each other in my extended family, so I just roll with it now and don't try to force it. [/quote]
