    Thinking about this I do think that the OP has handled this badly, especially as her daughter was prepared to do the hours asked originally

    What she could have done is to find out the legal position, warned her daughter that the employer may stop her doing the shifts and see what happens.

    The legal position is that she can work the shifts. There is no illegality. No need for mum to interfere or the daughter's hours to be cut.
    Trying to be a man is a waste of a woman
