I have a 14 yr old teenage girl who thinks she can get her way when she doesn't she freaks out verbally abusive any?

Since I don't know any background, i.e. , your method of raising your child, it's hard to give the best answer. In general, I think that some rebellion is to be expected at this age.

She is testing her boundaries, how far she can go. Too old to be a little kid and too young to be an adult. There's a fine line between "keeping her in line" and "breaking her spirit".

Children need and want boundaries but will test you and try to wear you down until you give in or stand your ground. The best way to teach children positive behaviors is to set good examples. Consistency is really important.

And listening to her point of view. "I'm your mother, that's why!" is not very effective, but explaining why you set a certain rule, out of love and concern for her safety, for example, can help her see you want the best for her. If you set a strong foundation early-on, a child may break rules or stretch the limits, but will always come back to that foundation.

Instead of choosing punishment first, think about helping her discover her passion. Everyone needs a purpose. If you can help her find something she really loves, she'll be good at it which will increase her pride, improve her self-esteem, self-confidence and she may not feel the need to be so defiant.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
