I need to create a spoof Yugioh or Magic: the Gathering deck for a project, and the theme is Safety.Does anybody have any good ideas for monster names related to safety? Like Demonic Goggles or Warrior of Safety or something like that?
Well, you're the mom. You're the boss. You don't have enough information for someone to say whether or not or how to calm the situation. Sorry. And, you said she is sensitive, many girls are sensitive at that age, I know I was. Talk to her when she isn't going through an attack like that. Talking helps the relationship too. Talk and ask her why she does this, and if she rebels talk at a later time.
I have been going through this for almost 1 1/2 years. It's hard to see them struggle, because you know (from being in their shoes) what they are going through. My daughter and I have a date night once a month so that her and I can talk about whatever is going on in that little mind of hers without having her stepfather / brother around. She loves it and sometimes she talks and sometimes she just listens. It's a great experience for the both of us and she seems to enjoy it so much. It helps her to know that I know what she is going through, although sometimes she thinks I am just plain mad for even thinking I understand. Just remember to tell her that you love her, explain to her that you have been down that road toand let her know that she can and should come to you with ANY problem / questionetc! Good luck! It will get easier.
I agree with lisa_s Just keep doing what you're doing if she pushes you away, give her some space, and cherish the times she wants a hug. There isn't much more to do, just let her know that you are and will always be there for her, when she feels like talking. Just want to add There may be something else going on that she doesn't know how to deal with. Just make sure she knows you are available to her no matter what the situation. That's really all we can do. Seems like the more we force our kids to turn to us the more they end up avoiding us.
I can’t enjoy that until this poem is finished, i didnt like that line. you basically all of a sudden complained in the middle of the poem. took away from the vibe. I start to think of the sharp cold and cutting, acute headaches, too many adjectives that didn't flow well. how about the wincing, sharp, cold headaches
My Little Sister is 12 and going through the same thing. It's a hard age on the one hand, you're still a little girl and on the other, you're on the brink of being a young woman. And your hormones are going crazy to boot. It could just be mood swings due to puberty/hormones. When she's in the mood to allow you to comfort her, make sure you talk to her and reassure her that if there's anything she's upset about she can come to you with it. If there's something bigger going on, she's going to need to feel really secure to broach it with you. If it's just the puberty thing, then you have to figure out how to deal with the bad moods. My Little Sister's mom basically said, You can be in whatever mood you need to be in. Your feelings are yours. But in this house, we respect each other, so you won't talk back or slam doors or otherwise be disrespectful or you'll lose privileges. She's lost a lot of phone privileges, video game time, tv time, etc but she's figuring out that if she's less mouthy she'll have more fun stuff to do.
