I have a 14 year old, and I think she would actually die of embarrassment if I behaved like Emma. She already thinks I'm deeply uncool and terribly unfair- and it isn't just her, her friends are all the same with their parents. While they are all good and loving kids, they are starting to chafe against our authority a bit and the opinions of their peers are currently more important to them, which is just part of growing up. I'm not sure what Emma is expecting from the teen years, but I think she can definitely kiss goodbye to the mother/daughter twinning, the little girly dates, and start expecting a fair few "can you delete thats?" from both of them.
