Parenting Teenage Girls Is Not For The Faint Of Heart
Words from our Executive Director @mrsnicolewilson
โBeing a mom to a teenage girl is not for the faint at heart. Our girls begin forming into young women and can often become a mirror for ourselves- who we were, who we are and the in between of all of our perceived short comings. This can lead us moms into a whirlwind of anxiety. Most of the time itโs from a sincere place. We love our girls and we want for them to be the best and have the best. Better versions of us. But that anxiety often comes out as forms of control- the one thing they are going to buck against in the teenage years. So here is what I learnedโฌ๏ธ
๐๐พMy daughter was a unique version of herself-not me
๐๐พI had to stop trying to exert control over her based on what I wanted her journey to be and embrace who she was and where she was
๐๐พI had to learn to enjoy each stage of her life. Her as a 12 year old, the 16 year old and now the 27 year old. I get to have new and different relationships with her as she grows.
It may seem hard now. But they do come back around to you. Enjoy the journey Mommas!โ
