Teenager in a 6 year old body
#6
Dear Gwasi,
It must be awful to have that constant tension in the house.. like walking on eggshells.

I don't know much about raising kids, but it sounds to me like she's a very insecure little girl who's trying to compensate by being 'ok', in control, in charge.. or else she'd fall apart. She's apparently trying to keep you at arm's length, as a hug would reveal all her pain. Maybe she's crying out for discipline??? Insecure kids usually try all kinds of bad behaviour just to get that bit of discipline that tells them we really care about their well-being..
perhaps I'm being idealist.

May you have much grace and wisdom.. and it's great to have people to talk to about it and other resources like websites etc. Quite a challenge though to find the right advice!

Sterkte, love, Jen.

ok:
