[QUOTE="tee2, post: 147481, member: 591"] Wow -- you're such a great mom! Sounds like you know what to do. You know, I remember clearly being that age myself and feeling all those things and just crying for no particular reason. I remember wanting my mom to make me feel better, but knowing there really wasn't anything anyone could do. It still helped to at least get it all out to a sympathetic ear. And of course, to have some way to try to "take control" and DO something about it. So I think your plans are great! I think back and wonder what helped the most, and I think it was just time to get through that age. Is this stuff worse for girls than boys? It seems like it! My teen's "angst" moments tend to come right before bedtime, when I'm trying to get my youngest to settle for the night. And she's not quiet about it. She's crying, at the same she's wiping away tears, she's kinda yelling -- she's a mess! But, I'll take it over her "manic" up-all-nighters from a few years ago where she'd come into my room at 3 a.m. ranting/crying about some irrational thing! Enjoy your mother/daughter time! [/QUOTE]
