Now I am pretty sure that my daughter is having a boy problem but im not realy sure how to approach this. I dont want to sound like a bad parent or anything but i just want to make sure. Would the best thing for me to do is just give her some time and see how this turns out, like if it gets worse? She knows that i am there for her when she needs me.....

Just let her know you're there if she needs anything.

I think that you just need to let her know that your there for her and that she can talk to you about anything. And sometimes when a younger girl has a problem she is shy about asking her mother so if she seems to be approaching you with a question be open completely to her

When your daughter starts dating not only can you be her mother, you can be her best friend. Tell her about your experiences with high school boyfriends, crushes, and problems (age appropriate, of course) . Tell her you can be her friend and try to be there for her (if she doesn't believe you can be friends show her a episode of gilmore girls.. haha). She'll be more open to talk about hers because your on the same level. This could also help her come to you in the future when she's having problems.

Get involved with the issue your daughter is having. If you think that you know what the problem is, give her the answer by letting her know that you have had the same experience, i.e. just sit down beside her and say, "I once had a boyfriend and we had this type of problem and this is how we got over this type of problem." just fill in the blanks with the problem. let her know that she is not alone.

As a father of 2 teenagers and a son I will give you my opinion. Although you are her Mother, you need to have some type of friendly communication. As long as you can seperate the 2 then you should have good response. But beware...if she tells you something that would enrage you as a parent, you have to be more of a friend.

As long as she knows that you are there for her then there isn't a lot more you can do. You can ask a few questions just to make sure it isn't anything serious like sex, pregnancy, or some other thing that you absolutely need to be involved in.

Just ask her if everything is okay between her and the boy. You'll know for sure by the way she answers you, whether it's a yes or no. Then just offer to be available if she needs to talk.

Just remind her that you are there for her if she needs you. Ask her if she is having any problems with anything. If she is, she will eventually tell you.

Just give her time and let her come to you. If she seems down, ask her what is wrong but don't pry. She will eventually confide in you.

chances are, unless you're close, she might not tell u. just be there for her if she wants to talk, and hear her out. don't offer advice right away unless she directly asks for it, and don't critisize her for what she chose to do. if you do, she won't come back for advice again.
