Tweens are terrorist sleepers!

I have a daughter. Up until recently I thought I knew where I had got her from. But lately, I am beginning to wonder if maybe it was all a drug induced hallucination in order to plant an agent in my house.
It seems the sleeper is waking up... shudder.
Personality changes, physical changes, it is enough to give you nightmares!

At 11, I was still afraid of the headmistress of my school. I think I did what I was told most of the time, I did not have a mobile phone, and I did not think that I was 'all that'

My 11 year old, however, is not afraid of anyone with authority, only of her friend's opinions. She has to have some sort of consequence hanging over her head, or a reward, to do something she is told to do. She has a mobile phone that fits into her pocket... hey I had to wait until I was 27 to get one of those.. But that is my fault, I admit. I gave it to her for safety and I check the call register which she blessedly is unaware of :D

I am getting increasingly more anxious about her teen years. I am sure that the terrorist will be in full swing, with flagrant disregard for niceties of the western world and little regard for the sanity of her 'family'

God grant me patience!
