Dd (15) is going through a bit of a tough time at the moment. She is very down/depressed/anxious and we are waiting for an appointment to see a therapist.
We are close and she will talk to me which is good. However, she is not getting on at all well with dh at the moment. At best she finds him 'annoying', at worst 'entitled'. She's hardly got a nice word to say to him at the moment.
Dh does have form for saying the wrong thing, think he's finding the whole teenage girl thing a bit mystifying. I've talked to him a lot about it and he is making an effort not to put his foot in things.
I am really stuck in the middle. I know I shouldn't take sides but sometimes it's very difficult. Last night they clashed over dd stretching out on the sofa making it difficult for dh to sit down.
How do you deal with this? Dd will tell me how annoying dh is being, what do I say to her??
