Yes, you do have the right to be upset. And I'd let her know quietly and calmly how you feel.
She wants to get to her "mates" - they're the ones in her life who are important right now. But it doesn't give her the right to be rude. You should have stopped her in her tracks.
Should you be hurt - No. She would never do it to hurt you. She's just thoughtless. Doesn't mean it is acceptable.

Of course you have every right in the world to be upset by this. You still can tell her what she can/can't do though. You should've MADE her sit down with you and share her joys about this holiday before she was allowed to bolt out the door. I'm sure she loves you and was just excited to be back to see her pals, but YOU are far more important than any of these friends will ever be, so when you see her next, sit down and express how this made you feel. She should understand and not be so negligent of her mommy next time. :(

yes from your perspective but no from hers - shes young and obviously isnt thinkin about how her actions affect the likes of you and the rest of her family. Maybe you should ask her if you and her can go out for the day at the weekend or something - shopping maybe? And have a talk with her explaining how much you like it when the two of you have quality time together and you should both do it more often. I took my mum for granted when i was that age and i really wish i didnt now. But just enjoy her while shes still young. It wont be long before shes celebrating her 21st! It soon comes around!!!
Goodluck xxx

Yes you have every right to be upset about this, but its just a teen thing, I was a lot like that, in fact I never really appreciated my parents until I left home! I bet she still loves you loads, but its probably way cooler to talk to her friends than her mum!

yes i would be upset and i used to do things like that to my mum. but now my kids do it to me! Tell her how she has treated you cos she might not ahve even realised and will really appreciate your honesty.

yes but she is a teen and is probably excited about telling everyone and that she will see you later to tell you, or that she assume ur sister will tell you all about it.
