Sounds like she is being a typical teen but idk. Have you considered having her talk to a counselor? Kids usually have a hard time opening up to parents b/c they will be judged etc. Have a conversation with her and ask her what's going on b/c you are worried etc. If there is no communication or she seems to not want to talk ask her if she would like to talk to someone else. At 13 hormones are all over the place. Hopefully she is not being bullied but the only way you would know is to ask. hth

she has talked to a counselor..and i have tried to talk to her but she will not talk.she thinks i dont know anything.she just rolls her eyes at me..and been bullied at school.no she hasnt..and if she has she would be fighting all the time with the other kids..if that happend..she doesnt put up with it..like i said i dont know what to do..im just hoping she will get out of it soon..and i cant afford to take her to one of those doctors where you can talk to them..i cant think of them right now.and her insurance doesnt cover them kind..
(HUGS) All i can offer is when she starts talking just listen. The best for me to dialogue with my dd 17 is the car lol she can't escape lol
Honey, start the clog dancing because the girl is playing you like a fiddle. You are getting a heaping helping of teen angst and manipulation. Teenagers think denying them the right to socialize and communicate with their friends is child cruelty. She needs to be reminded of how much she needs you. Take away her cell, net, and time with friends and she will straighten up pretty quick. Let her pout. She doesnt have to like anything you say or do but she does have to do it anyway.
Stupid question but are these outbursts regularly timed or all the time? My teen did this for about a week a month (still does) and I believe it is PREPMS because she hasn't started yet.

i have tooken away everything from her..she is grounded tell the end of the school year..i told her no friends,no laptop,no cell,and not to even ask to go any wheres..with anybody..she is only allowed to go with me if i have to go pay bills etc if she isnt in school and i also told her when she isnt in school she will be going with me to work..i clean homes for people and they ladies told me that i clean for that i can bring her with me anytime..and i will be putting her to work..she didnt like that..lol..she didnt know what to say..
Sounds like you have tried almost everything. Just let her know you love her, but be firm in letting her know ugly behavior will not be tolerated. If she mouths off, tell her to try again. Do y'all enjoy the same music, movie tastes, etc most of the time? Maybe some together time would help.
