Stay strong RR17. 15, 16, and 17 year old girls don't always know why they are feeling angry, upset, etc. But they will try to blame others for it. I have received a lot of blame for my daughter's feelings from her over the last year and a half. Deep down she knows it isn't me.

Exactly what I told my W. She obviously didn't validate, but I believe she saw the point. If anything I believe W was feeling guilty and attempted to project the blame.

After my last post I asked D17 if I could speak to her before she went to bed. I asked her if I had done anything wrong. She said no, not really. It was just a lot of things. I showed her some pictures of us from just a few years ago and how she had grown. She smiled and we hugged.
