Hi everyone.
It's been a hard few days.
I can sum it up in just one word....
TEENAGER
Teenage girl to be exact.
Every time I see a commercial or some TV show that depicts someone talking and smiling about how close they are with their daughters...
"We're best friends" and "I love spending time with my Mom"
I want to throw something at the TV.
Suddenly, I am public enemy number one around here
When the Hell ( yeah I said it) did I become the person to avoid?
Am I too strict?
Am I not strict enough?
What The Hell ( yep, I said it again) am I doing wrong?
I say black
She say white
I say no
She shouts "Why not, Why not, Why not,Why not, Why not, Why not, Why not, Why not, Why not,Why not, Why not, Why not , Why not, Why not, Why not,Why not, Why not, Why not , Why not, Why not, Why not,Why not, Why not, Why not!" Even though the "why not" has been explained several times
I find myself wanting to start a support group of Moms of teen girls
or perhaps there is already one out there?
If there is where do I sign up? and how early can I get there?
I find myself echoing my mother's words
Because I am the boss!
My House my rules!
OVER my dead body!!!
I need help
It seems everyone else gets the smiley girl and I get

I am googling self-help books
These are the titles I am looking for.
