*Just sorta shrugs my shoulders at momma, still kinda mad about
her taking the phone away. Still fingercombing my hair - mostly
because it needs done, but also because it gives me a reason to
hide my face from momma*

When a moment passes and there is no response from my daughter I
get up from her bed. She knows I dislike that as well.
"Alright," I tell her, "I was going to let you have your phone
back tonight, but if you want to give me the silent treatment
rather than have a mature discussion about things, I'll keep it
at least overnight." Willa hadn't been overly rude to me and the
phone thing hadn't been intentional, so I don't think a spanking
is in order for her behavior.

Softening slightly I answer, "Willa, I don't want you to say
anything you don't mean, for starters," I clarify. But it would
be nice if you would try to see things from my perspective and
if you understand it, say so. Just like I did when you told me
how you saw things."

*lets out a sigh, slumping slightly in the window seat. Tucking
my hair behind my ears i glance over at you.*
"I'm sorry momma, you're right. I do understand, i just don't
like it much!"

Taking a breath I go over to my daughter and sit beside her,
putting an arm around her, gently pulling her to me. "Willa, I
don't expect you to like everything I have to say. But I do
expect you to respect that I'm saying it in the same way that I
respect what you say. You're sixteen and old enough that we
should be able to have conversations about stuff like this. But
that can't happen if you just shut down on me when I try to talk
to you."

*leans into momma when she puts her arm round me, layin my head
on her shoulder. Thinks about what she said, and tries to
explain whats goin on in my head.*
"i know Momma, i'm sorry. It's like, sometimes theres someone
else takes over my body an i'm stuck inside. It's like i can
see and hear whats goin on on the outside but i can't do nothing
about it!"

"It's called being a teenager," I answer softly as I start to
run my fingers through my daughter's hair. "And I think it's a
good thing you know how you're acting isn't okay. But Willa,
when I call you on it you've got to acknowledge that, otherwise
the consequences might be a lot worse. Especially if I know you
know better. Remorse goes a long way. It might not always get
you completely out of stuff, but you'll be a lot better off with
being honest than not. And yes, not acknowledging that you do
know better than to do something is a level of dishonesty."

*Sighs softly and closes my eyes as momma runs her fingers
through my hair, loving it when she plays with it. Thinks about
what she said.*
"I guess i never thought about it that way Momma, aabout it bein
a kind of dishonesty."
*Thinks on what she said about being sorry when i done
something*
"I'm always sorry f i upset you Momma, i guess i just don't
always show it so well huh?"

"I think that sometimes the teenaged attitude and want for
independence overshadows that, yes," I answer with a smile.
