I could do with a course on building self esteem etc for a teenage daughter as whatever I say or do is wrong - all I want is to help but its "open mouth insert foot time"- ever had that feeling AnW's mum

It's not been too bad with Miss A as she is only 10 so not into the HUGE teen strops yet but I know what you mean as I have put my foot in it with other people before now in fact it happened recently. Was done with the best of intentions and back fired big style, so now in that situation I am keeping everything zipped! No opinion offered, suggestions made or initiative employed.

That is wonderful news about your LO but as for toots overdoing it?! We do keep a beady eye but as long as it's nice things wearing her out then I think that is better than the boring house stuff
