Siblings

Ok let's deviate from school preparation for a moment. I am the mother of a 15 year old daughter who over the last six months has been begun arguing with me and her father. She has been extremely low maintenance up to this point and with her sister of 12 years and brother of 7 years, I am beyond exhausted parenting the three of them during their current stages. Any words of wisdom or encouragemnt? I am so looking forward to everyone going back to school to get on a schedule, hoping this will assist our attitudes!

  1. Shooo... Wish I could help you out. I don't have children but I think it may be a stage she is going through. Or something may be bothering her?
    But I highly agree that getting back to school will help you all!

    Just remind her that you brought her into this world and you can take her out too!! lol.

  2. I have so been there. My daughters are now 23, 21, and 12. The best I advice I can give you is grin and hang on. It is going to get worse before it gets better. I was once given the advise that I need to stick to my guns. One my daughters would understand when they become a parent themselves. This is so true....

    Good luck next week as you start back to the world of school. I will be thinking of you and I understand oh so well!
