It is a phase...but do remember that you are leading by example and in doing so have every right to reprimand your daughter for disrespecting you in any way...including insulting your intelligence!!!

I think I am married to your daughter.

How old is your daughter? This has a lot to do with it but it sounds like you are putting too much emphasis on what your daughter thinks.  YOU are the adult. Keep being the best you can be and lead by example…………..

Continue to parent, we all went through this, only wish that you will say to her "I hope that you get a daughter just like you someday".  We laughed recently, as my daughter complained to us that her 3 yr. old daughter changes clothes all day long, I reminded her of the above, and said "see, it does come true".  We all laughed, after she denied that she did that, but we reminded her of it!  It was very funny...

you are the driver of your life so don't let her take that role away.  You do what is right for you because her thinking age is different and she will only realize that by making her own mistakes. So continue doing what is right for you.  Hear her out but not necessarily follow her. By doing so you are respecting her views.

Invite her to take charge of everything for a week, or two, or a month, whatever you think will break her of her nasty habit.  Make a list of all the things you do in a normal week and let her take care of it.  She still needs to take care of going to school and completing assignments. YOU do what she does when she is home (probably little to nothing).  Remember to criticize everything she does.  

the simple answer is believe wath do you believe
