My 16yr old has for a long time been rude & sworn at me when things are not going her way. Tonight it was because I turned off the TV at 10pm. I have just created a teenage lounge room with leather settee & 49" TV. They are hardly neglected children! I never dreamt of talking to my parents as she does to me. Where have i gone wrong? Everyone thinks she is such a lovely child but I am feeling bullied by my own daughter who is taller & bigger than me.
Also my 18yr old has taken to going clubbing on her night off, sometimes until 5 in the morning. I hate it & feel quite ill with worry when she is out. She takes no notice of my concern. I am a divorced Mum & I care for my mum who is 93, & source for my ex who is paraplegic.
