I am not at the teenage stage with my DD yet so have no perspective on this really hence my post here.
DSD has always been v involved in our/ her Dad's life although there was a move a couple of years ago quite far away which has made contact more difficult and more often by phone. We love her very much and have a warm relationship (I am never too much in her face and leave all "parenting" to her Dad if you get me.
Anyway she rang today in the car so I obviously heard the convo. and sounded very upset, like she had been crying. She was just ringing to say hi and catch up but I could tell her voice was breaking and she was sniffing. I was silently motioning to DH "she is crying! Ask her what is wrong" she said she was fine and just tired but then said something about a boy or a party I think.
DH said to her to take it easy and try and get some sleep but she said she was going out again tonight and said goodbye. DH thinks it's just normal teenage emotions but I am worried about her - she is a v young 16 and this is all very new to her. Do you think there is anything I can do? My instinct tells me she is hurting and I don't know what to do to help.
