122. Raising a pre-teen girl
Will someone please get me a copy of this book...or any other book that would tell me how to deal with a teen-age girl! Sometimes it can be so frustrating how our children do not seem to understand that all we want is the best for them. My daughter is no exception! I now know how many parents wish their children remain children...yes, the cutie-little-ones! Today, she came home in such a good mood...jokes and laughter included. The next minute she is all cranky about her mobile phone and how she is not allowed to call her friend...yeah, this happens just as we enter the house coming from school....i wonder what they'd talk about just minutes after they said bye to each other. I told her to rest...and that for her means, reading her comic books and listening to music to which I have to again say no...and the next round of tantrums flew in. Like this, my world revolves around trying to make her understand the rules of the house and how they are made just to protect her and support her...not necessarily to make her life, as she calls it...miserable! Hayyy...I was never like that as a teenager!!! And yep, she's not yet a teenager....but don't you dare ask my mom!
