Stop playing a parenting role. She's a big girl now. She wants out, let her go, let her manage on her own without you playing a concerned parent role.

This comes across as controlling. You are telling her how to take care of herself.

Nobody really likes it when somebody is always doing that.


I never thought of it that way. I do realize that when I mention it she gives me that look. the same one she gives her mother when she mentions it. I know that she has had problems with her mother her whole life. So I feel like she has put me in that catagory now. So I guess me saying this is pushing me further into the parenting role which she wants to be a little kid with n responsability, but she does not want to be told what to do. NO RULES!!
