TraciWA Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 do thirteen year old girls have to be so hard to live with sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plucky Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Hormones? I wouldn't want to be that age again for anything. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unicorn. Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Oh, just wait. 14 is even more fun. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KungFuPanda Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 My daughter didn't get difficult until 14. I asked a friend if 15 would be better and she said "No, but you'll be more used to it." If it's any consolation, 15 1/2 seems less . . . Everything. I'm hopeful for 16 :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyhomemaker Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 My 10yr old has already started crying at the drop of a hat. When she turns 13, I'm thinking of leaving the country for a year or 2 and letting dh deal with it. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie G Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 I've gone through it three times and I want to encourage you- once the snarling, crying, sometimes selfish teen girls turn the corner and grow up, they are delightful. I'm glad my fourth was a boy.g Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTwinsMom1 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 My 10 almost 11 year old has already started this. She has decided nobody is allowed to live here except her. We are not supposed to talk to her, bother her, be around her....sigh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbmamaz Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 my daughter and I barely spoke from 11 to 17. it was horrible. She moved out the day she turned 18, and came back 7 months later much easier to live with. She's polite most of the time now, has a part time job and is starting full time at the university as a transfer student advertising major . . . so yes, it gets better. eventually.

Kelly1730 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Oh, just wait. 14 is even more fun. :tongue_smilie: 15 is not much better; hang in there until she turns 19 or 20 and they become delightful once again;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southcarolinamom Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 13 is when it starts ..... but 15 is dreadful. Now that my dd is 16 3/4, I can see light at the end of a very long tunnel. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdalley Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 It's not just 13 year old girls. My 13 year old golfer boy.... let's just say he's lucky we are playing the last two tournaments on courses that lack water hazards. (I am joking - truly. I think.) It's so frustrating to try and get through to him that all of the talent in the world will not overcome a bad attitude. The oldest was such an easy teenager. His rough spell came when he was smaller. But this one is only two months into 13 and I feel like a complete failure as a parent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are not supposed to talk to her, bother her, be around her....sigh. just send money and take her wherever she wants to go. I have a 14 yo. I didn't like 14 yo girls much when I was a teen, and they haven't changed much. I still don't like them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
