Help stroppy 16 yr old

It's not nice but it's normal; not a majority perhaps but it isn't clinical. It's hard for you but it's harder for her. Think back - would you like to be sixteen again? Tom Perry

She must be having a problem that she cant tell you. When we are angry of something, we always take it out from the closest to us. If you cant approach her, try somebody who she listens to, to talk to her. May be a relative or a kind old friend. Try to find out anything from her friends. May be a small thing but severely bothering her. Also, that age is that, I can remember when I was that age, I just hated everybody and everythig, including my parents. It passes. Have faith. I will have you in my prayers.

you need to very gentle with her, ask her if there is anything she wants to talk about, maybe try getting her to go see a counslor, she maybe just feeling stressed and pressured byt everything that she needs to talk it out. or it could be physical, like her being pregnant or mental like a chemical inbalance in her brain. either way you need her to talk to someone and get it out in the open. good luck.

To my warning it is corrupt. Let it lose, avoids speaking to him, only wants to catch attention, if you do it feeling less important, if only he changes and understands to have made a mistake. But I do not know her, it would be easier if I knew her. sorry time do it for that problem.

i think it's because she grew up getting everything she wants and not being told to be sensitive to the people around her that's why she's like that. Or maybe there is something wrong and you can try to talk to her alone and ask what she wants. i have no child yet, but i sometimes i understand why people act the way they do, or maybe i see myself in it :) just helping

Maybe this audio book will help you re-establish a working form of communication: How to Talk So Teens Will Listen and Listen So Teens Will Talk http://www.AudioBooksCorner.com/Title.aspx?titleId=1037&srch=teens It has helped my teen and myself to connect again. Teens tend to be that way, and we adults sometimes make it worse, even though we try to resolve it. Mayn traps here, the book explains how to ship around the rocks and find a save haven. Good luck to you and your teen!

She definitely sounds like the a-typical, prepubescent teenager ~ Selfish, moody, emotionally unstable, hot/quick tempered and risk-taking behavior. Being a teenager (adolescent, young adult, tween, pre-teen) is a transitional stage of human development. It is a difficult period of growth. The transition involves biological, social, physiological and psychological changes. Their hormones are changing which makes them moody, irritable and emotional. Their brains are still developing which makes them conflicting/rebellious and risk-takers. This part of development includes their rational thinking, cognitive abilities and reasoning. On top of that, they are also experiencing social pressures (peer pressure) and physical developmental changes (puberty) so their bodies seem like strangers to them. They are often unsure of themselves or uncomfortable with their sexuality and body image. Do you remember peer pressure and puberty? Even with as much stress and responsibility that's involved in being adult, I wouldn't want to be a teen again for anything!!! Welcome to Teen-Town, Mommy = ) GOOD LUCK!

Myself being an 18 year old, the best advice I can give you is if being gentle is not working, try being a bit more strict. Let her know exactly what your position is and how her behaving this way is affecting everyone around her. She WILL not take it lightly but from my experience, when she is alone she will reflect on what you said and hopefully will want to make a change. That's the best I can try to help you =)
