How did my teen get like this?

Question

my teen daughter is being rebellious and she never was like this. Shes 14 now. And I'm worried , she doesn't listen to me , she swears, .

Is it because of her friends influencing her? Parents have been telling me her 3 best friends, are bad . I don't agree though. Who's fault is it? Why is she acting like this?

Answer 1

kids go through this stage.. i should no i did.. im 17 and i can tell u as soon as i hit 14 i was the worst kid my parents could ever imagine.. give her space... let her do wat she wants... but at the same time make sure its nothing illegal she is doing.. as long as its not illegal your fine... you have to let your kids make their own mistakes and learn from them if you dont they will rebel more and be a wild child trust me you cant tie your kids down or they will rebel more.. only reason kids do things wrong is because they arent suppose too.. tell them they can do wat they want and it takes the fun out of it and they wont wanna do it... because if you dont care theres no point and sneaking and sneaking is wat makes it fun

Answer 2

I'm not older than her i'm younger. But i'm almost the same but not rebellious. It maybe be some of her friends that are bad influences, or songs that she listens to. First time i listened to Tina Turner... well Ike and Tina Turner my attitude changed. I stopped listening to music from this century to the 50's- 90's. I've been acting bad to my parent's especially my mom. I've been listening to bad music which i'm to young for and I've been having weird dreams since then. And i say bad words. And i'm only 10 years old. I am telling the truth.

Trust me i'm changing because of music and influences on other people. I've been listening to nasty music... but I LOVE IT SO MUCH!

that song would be "I'VE BEEN LOVING YOU TOO LONG" get's me happy every time i'm mad, sad, or what ever im feeling.

Answer 3

i would say most likely its puberty, i definitly went through the i hate my mom stage and now at 19 i would say shes my best friend. you gotta stick to the rules of your home and not falter, you may go through some tough times but she'll turn out to be a better person in the end. dont worry, it didnt take until now for us to be friends we stopped fighting at the beginning of my senior year. good luck, be strong, and im sorry us girls are real b*****s at that age.

Answer 4

It is very true every teen gos throw something like this.

when i was 13 i was very disrespectful to my mother.it got so bad that she sent me to live with my older sister.who lived in bc.mom stayed in toronto.

my problem with my mother is that she never loved me never hugged me or really show any feelings for me.honestly i'm 26 now and still to this day i still feel that way.

spend time with your daughter,go to the movies together,take her to get her hair done or nails talk with her show her that you love and care about her.at first she most likely will just tell you to go away,leave me alone stuff like that.but keep it up and don't take no for an answer.

good luck i hope you get throw to her.

for her sake

Answer 5

its what she learns and what she sees, she is being influenced by her friends why are these people telling you their bad what are they saying, maybe they are telling the truth adn the friends are pulling the wool over your eyes. you need to start punishing her taking things away not letting her out and if she does leave call the cops and get her on pins stop it now before she becomes a worse lose case.  

Answer 6

All teens do that! Its no ones fault! She is being rebellious  

Answer 7

3 letters pms

Answer 8

She's a teenage girl it's going to happen

I'm 13 and I know public school can be a bad place

I'm home schooled now and have great friends who are really nice and aren't anything like my old public school that I only went to in the 7th grade

let me tell you what its like,

her friends at school that you have never met probably make more of an influence on her then her best friends do

And at this age people cuss all the time

people don't judge you if you cuss or not but it starts to be a habit

sit her down and tell her you don't like the person shes becoming

you're what your households like but if you are a Christan and believe in God it can make a great difference if you pray with her

i hope this helps, good luck

Answer 9

She's 14. 14 year old girls don't get along with their moms

Answer 10

14 is a bad age. Parents just seem really stupid. It's probably partially her friends though.

Answer 11

Although I never really went through that stage, my younger sister did at 13 and 14. She argued about everything she was asked to do, swore, screamed and even hit our mum and I. It was definitely not the fault of our parents or her friends. By the time she turned 15 she was magically better behaved. It was no one's fault that she was like that. It was just a phase, and we could all speculate indefinitely over whether it was hormones, school pressure, peer pressure etc., but when it comes down to it, all you can really do is wait for the phase to pass. I'm sorry you're having to go through this, but rest assured it is definitely not your fault.  

Answer 12

Often times teens become rebelious as a statement of indepence from their parents. Your daughter is beginning to see the world from a young-adults perspective and in this day in age, children are growing up faster and faster. Anyway, it's very common for kids to go through the rebellious stage. Try to find a good balance between, letting your child express her individuality and discipline. Your concern about your daughter is the first indication that you have good values and those are most surely instilled in her as well. She still searching for herself, so let her express her feelings and when she crosses the line, tell her how you feel about it honestly and calmly.

It's really no one's fault, it just the way we all grow up:) All the best.

Answer 13

All right, here it is. Obviously her friends are a bad influence. If it weren't for the friends I had when I was 14, I'd still be Ms. Goody Two Shoes. Nothing bad, but maybe it's something she needs to find out for herself. Don't forget to supervise her, though. Remind her that drinking, smoking, drugs, and s*x are bad. She will listen if you let her know how important it is to you that she doesn't do it, and how it can affect her in the long wrong. I may be older, but I'm not that much older, I still remember how it was when I was fourteen. Just make sure she's not doing things she shouldn't. Swearing isn't something you should be worrying about. Don't let her rebel, either. You are the parent, not her. Don't let her take control, or you will never have it again.

Good luck, I really hope it works out for you.

Answer 14

first, why is this is Trying to Conceive?

Second, she is 14 its her nature. i remember when i was 14 if my mom said something i did the exact opposite. she swears because her friends swear. if parents are telling you that her friends are bad news its probably because they are. they may know something that you dont. personally i dont think its any ones fault but maybe her hormones. this may sound weird but take her to an OBGYN. this is what my mom did when she thought i was to moody. it turns out my hormones where out of whack. i was but on BC to help control my hormones and it worked a little. but it just depends on the person

Answer 15

Friends are a big influence on teenagers.  If your are hearing that her friends are bad, there must be a reason. You would be surprised to see how they really act when not in the presence of adults they know.  

Answer 16

Her friends could be a part of it but maybe it's puberty talk to her about it

Good Luck

Hopes this helps

Answer 17

ALL kids curse, you just won't hear it as much until they're older. I started cursing around my mom when I was around 14 and i'm now 15. She might just be in a fad or might be becoming who she is. I'd leave it alone and support her as long as it doesn't turn into something with drugs/alcohol etc.  

Answer 18

Well I'm 13 and from my point of view, her friends might play a big role in the way she is acting. they may be making fun of her or just pressuring her into doing things that are bad, or she is probably catching on to their attitude. maybe she has a boyfriend and they are having problems or he broke up with her. maybe she is doing bad in school. but all of these contribute to one word...PUBERTY she is 14 which is one year older than me and at our age. when our parents push us to open up to them it doesnt help. ask her if there is something wrong and if that doesnt work, if you have any close friends or sisters, have them talk to her. but if your daughter complains just let her vent out. dont worry she will grow out of it. try getting her into an activity that helps her release this stress or lets her talk to new people

Answer 19

it could be a few things, at that age girls are weird as it is.  shes a freshman in high school?  shes just trying to adapt.  its probably just a phase and will pass.  if her friends really are bad news, asking her to separate will lead to world war 3.  i would wait it out, if it gets really bad, maybe she needs to change schools?

good luck!

Answer 20

2 possible reasons.

1. because this age, teens think they know everything and act different

2. maybe her friends really are bad but the are really sweet in front of you.

Answer 21

awh i feel soo bad for you:[. Kids are just like this at this age, there will come a point when she will be the sweet kid she has always been hopefully. Try telling her how you feel, and if her 3 best friends are bad then maybe shes just trying to be cool. She will most likely grow out of this. Just stay positive.

Answer 22

try talking to her.

every teen goes through this "stage"

Answer 23

her peers are probably the number 1 thing that could be causing it

puberty is another thing

try confronting her
