As my girls get older they seem to pick me apart a lot more.
I know this is part of their teen girl nature.
Knowing that fact doesn't seem to lessen the hurt though.
I thought it would, but it doesn't.
I find that when they argue, shoot down or pick apart any comment or thing I say or do,
I pretty much just want to go some where else, whether that is in a different room, outside,
or to my studio.
Got news for you from the future, mom: it only gets worse. And the older they get, they have more finesse. So they can really stick it to you. And they do. Remember the drive back from PCT? We'll always have Shasta.
