Hello
My daughter is sixteen. It's a tough time. They have so much going on in their heads. Peer pressures, future goals , school, hormones. When my daughter gives me attitude, I pause, ask if her she's like to talk about it, and then tell her tone is not acceptable and if she's like to try again. I get a lot of 'eye rolling' deep sighs, and stomping off. I try not to complicate her life anymore that it all ready is, and don't pressure her very much except that she be respectful to her Dad and I. It's a slow go, but once you set the pace of what is acceptable and what is not, they get the idea.
