I guess my 13 yr. old daughter feels there's not enough drama in her real life so she needs to make our interactions appear like they've come from a soap opera to feel she's really living the teen life style.
I bite my lip trying not to laugh at her comebacks to my requests. I can't believe how many times I've heard, "You just don't understand!", "How can life be so unfair!" and "You'll never know how this feels" - all this from the request of 'Will you empty the dishwasher?'.
Is there a camera in our house? Is she auditioning for the latest lame reality show and forgot to tell us? (Latest mantra - I will keep my sense of humor, I will keep my sense of humor. )
The fact that her responses make me think we're going to end up on The Soup make keeping a straight face very difficult. Thank you Joel McHale and bless you.
This is just the beginning. I thought when I heard others talk of this age that it wouldn't be this, well, weird. But it just kind of starts like a ripple then the waves get bigger and bigger.
I hope I can find a lifeboat - soon!
