Do you think you can spend too much time with your kids? I'm beginning to think that! My daughter and I have been arguing a lot lately and my mom said "It's because you spend too much time together". She is a teen (daughter) and we do a lot together.

I think it makes sense. Being in her teenage years, I think your daughter needs her own space more than she did when she was still a little child.

I'll go along with that. Space is a big thing with teens and even though they may like to do things with their parents they still like to hang out with their friends or even in their rooms, alone. I'd just back off a little and see how it goes.

I'm with hanging out alone and "private space" but most certainly be there when she wants to do something. I think that is just as important. I would see how it works though, back off a bit and see if you stop arguing.

When you spend a lot of time with anyone, it's easy to get a little burned out. Also, teenagers are probably more susceptible to interpreting suggestions as encroaching on their freedom. Maybe a little alone time would help matters. But I think it's great that your daughter wants to spend a lot of time with you.
