Exactly, she's SIXTEEN. Teenagers act up, teenagers lash out, teenagers don't fucking listen to their parents. Period. Why are people acting like this is some uncommon thing for a teenager to act like this?!
Fact is, there are way more constructive ways to get to them than to shoot a fucking bullet around them. I don't give a shit if it's at an inanimate object or not. This isn't even about "being a pussy" or all that hokey "being about the kids" b.s. It's pretty simple, if you know how to parent, stuff like this just isn't necessary.
Guaran-fucking-tee this absolutely tarnishes their relationship. And he's gonna wonder why...
She didn't listen, she went & did the same thing he told her not to do. How is that any different than any other teenager?!
