Yersott... Give er a break willya !
If you haven't been a 14 year-old girl you will never know willya ?
Of course..I have never been a fourteen year old girl either BUT I raised one right through those difficult years.
My daughter was a beautiful, ( still is ), wee girl who doted on her daddy right up until she was about twelve - when she found other people more interesting, ( especially boys ). That was when her problems started and went right though until she was about sixteen and started to leave puberty behind.
During these difficult years she would always come to me with her problems rather than to her mum and I thought that because I had her confidence I had all her problems under control...WRONG ! I didn't as there were things that she couldn't even tell me.
As I have mentioned before somewhere here; she had started smoking on the fly and had found a "friend" that introduced her to the ganja-weed too. After falling out with one of her best friends over a boy this so-called friend came to me and told me that my Sue was smoking weed and going with a boy that had a bad rep'.
Of course I felt a bit betrayed by this and my daughter and I fell out for almost a year because of it. ( All is fine now - I am glad to say - and she has since given me three wonderful grandchildren too ).
SO...I guess the moral is to treat the fourteen year-old's, ( especially the girls ), with sensitivity and understanding as they are ALL having life hard to one degree or another.
Here is a picture of my daughter when she was seven. ( No problem showing you her as she does not look like this now and therefore could not be identified by that piccie ).
