That’s awesome Cathy
12:57:28 From Millie Hsi (she, her, hers) To Everyone:
The best thing that your wife can do (after you two have talked it through) is to repair with your daughter. Acknowledge that she had an over-the-top reaction to the “lie”. She got triggered & had certain expectations from her daughter that didn’t happen. An apology to a teenager could go a long way. Create the connection again.
13:00:31 From missy To Everyone:
Cathy, I love the way you give us a way to say these things with levity…I sometimes feel like I need cue cards 🙂 and I use your tips often
13:03:43 From Kristen To Everyone:
