I have a couple of teenagers and for the most part everything has been extrememly good for us. My problem is that I have a hard time communicating with my youngest (daughter, 14). We just don't seem to "click". I have a really good rapport with the others, but my baby is just withdrawn, quiet, sort of in a world of her own. I make a strong effort to connect with her but I feel as though she pushes me out, and I don't know why. I pick her up from school / drop her off, I try to communicate but she makes it really hard, doesn't open up to me.
THe others are involved in everything... but the baby is just very introverted.
What am I doing wrong? How can I get her to come out of her shell. I want to be closer to her. Any ideas?
