If you have a tween daughter, you’ve likely experienced an emotional storm or two. Anger, crying jags, or even uncontrolled giggling that makes no sense. What’s a mother to do?
I was asked to share for the parenting tweens blog party at Like Minded Musings and I’m so glad I did. I realized that there was more I could do to strengthen my relationship with my daughter, who is now 13. We’ve already had a conversation that we gleefully banned her dad from participating in. 🙂
If you have a tween girl or if you soon will, I hope you will read my post and the rest of the posts in the tweens blog party.

It was my pleasure! So honored to be a part of this excellent blog party.
I’m reading untangled: guiding teenage girls through the seven transitions into adulthood, by Lisa cannot, PhD.
It describes his much girls have to change, in so many ways, in a very short time, how to support them, and when to worry. If the rest is as good as the first two chapters, I’m going to get another copy: .one for my own shelf, one to loan out.

That sounds like an excellent book, Cricket. Thanks for the recommendation.
