It’s been a really long break in my blog. I was growing…. And thinking…. And wondering…..what do I write as a mom of a fresh teenager. There is nothing I can write which will be sound advice. Coz no one knows how to really handle a teenager. Coz every teenager is different. Coz mine is 14 now and for the past one year or so I felt as if a rock hit me.
I am still finding the apt way of handling her. If I say something…. It’s often the wrong thing. If I don’t say anything….. I’m accused of not saying anything. What is a person supposed to do? When she comes and confides in me and tells me things she expects some sort of reply which I don’t know. Then she gets upset that I’m not saying the right thing.
And the funniest thing…. She will come and sit upset in front of me….. I will ask her what happened…..then again she gets upset because I should have known what the matter is!! HELLO!!!! I’m not a mind reader!! Does being a mom automatically mean mind reader? Then she says…. No you think what it is or what you should have said. How? Just how? If someone knows these magical powers please teach me. I certainly do want to know how to read her mind.
Sometimes she will be upset and fight with me and 5 seconds later she will behave as if nothing happened! Her mood swings are worse than when I was pregnant!
Still figuring out things. Everyday is a new experience. Everyday I learn something new. Hopefully I will find A easier to handle after going through it once……just hopefully.
