Grace first I want to say welcome to 4Wt . These wonderful ladies have given you awesome advice. I will keep it short, and may repeat a thing or two..

You do have your hands full with 5 kids, husband, dog and now mother.. I do agree with Janet as far as discipline you have to show them you mean business. As far as the teenage girl goes she is at that stage of rebellion .I do agree but she should not be leaving the house overnight without you knowing her whereabouts. That is very dangerous in todays day and age. You must punish her for that.. Let her know that you love her and horrible things can happen to her..

Your mother means well , try not to fight with her I know this is a hard thing to do. For most mothers and daughters buck heads when they have different ways of doing things.. She is not entirely wrong and loves you and your family, as far as the dog she is right you cannot trust dogs completely with the kids as you stated she snapped at one of the kids.

Motherhood does not come with a manual so you have to try your best. Stick with being firm and consistent and I think you will accomplish a lot.. Good luck!
