My 20 year old rarely talks to me any advice to repair the relationship
My 20 year old daughter rarely talks to me any advice?
So i have an older daughter 20f that rarely talks to me and i think it's because I didn't allow sleepovers.
I never allowed sleepovers even when she was 17 or older and she used to get really upset because all her friends had sleepovers every weekend almost and she could never attend Some parents let their kids stay till 10pm but I didn't let her do that either.
I don't know I kept her safe and I would have rather had her miss out on sleepovers than be assaulted but after 18 she doesn't talk to me much she went to a university with a partial scholarship and rarely talks to me anymore she says it isn't because of sleepovers but It was.
I was a little overprotective in other ways but It was mostly sleepovers that I was overprotective on Nof much otherwise. I did ban her from attending all school trips without me president and most high school trips didn't allow parents to come so she missed out on those i also didn't allow high to go to high school events and I didn't let her go to friends homes unsupervised till she was 17 and i always chaperoned when they hung out which made her friends not want to hang out with her and she wasn't allowed to go to parties without me or my husband even If it was her best friends birthday.
But I think the main reason is sleepovers so any advice? As no sleepovers was the most overprotective rule.
