No you won't always make the right decisions, no she won't like the decisions you make but, hey that is the way it goes. My daughter is 13 - will be 14 the end of this year and I am sure she can't stand me. But that means to me, that I am doing my job. We could be parents that just let them do whatever they want and they will say you are the coolest for it but when their lives are a mess as a result, they will look at you as the person at fault. Children need discipline, guidance and tough love! She will thank you later. I tell my daughter all of the time, you don't have to like me but you will love me later. KEEP DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING!!!! There are so many moms who are trying to be more of a friend than a mother to their daughters. As I have often said, I think you are doing a great job with mini-me.

I think that you are an awesome parent. But I know mini-me's opinion carries more weight than mine lol. I understand completely and trust me, I fall many times dealing with the emotional irrationality that is the teenager. (I just tossed out clothes (some new) of a teen who refused to put her clothes away and when asked to either give up the clothes or her cell for a week...cried, but gave up the clothes) ::blink blink:: Its even worse when you have two very separate personalities to parent believe me. I think this is a necessary time in our lives as well as our teenagers lives. All relationships evolve and this is the sometimes painful often times confusing time in yours (ours) Keep doing what you are doing (even when it seems you are the most hated) cause we both know we hated our moms "me probably WAY MORE than you" and we are closer now than we ever were to them when we were 14/15. Hugs and Kisses I AM SOOOOOO FEELIN THIS POST!!!!!
