Ditto Jen about the teenage b*tch thing. Your daughter is being exactly who she's supposed to be. Maybe DB her? Because, Rob, teenagers ARE aliens, big time. Trust me, I work with 7th and 8th graders, and they can be wicked crazy. I just out crazy them and am a non-judgmental ear if they need it.
And yeah...teenage girls especially LOATHE themselves. EVERYTHING about them is wrong, wrong, wrong. I hated myself at the age...really actually did until about this time last year. It's part of the gift of womanhood in our society....
Keep up the great life work!
