Does your DD talk about whats happening?

[Inanna]

It depends on the child. My eldest DD has always been sneaky & secretive. She only tells me what she thinks will score her points! My DS tells me wayyyyy too much sometimes... My next DD tells me what she feels, thinks, believes, aspires too. Her nighttime dreams, how she feels about certan friends & situations... Much like my DS... My next DD - she's pretty tight chested also...

I know she doesn't tell me everything, but she does tell me a lot. Sometimes it's about her, last week it was about one of her friends.
The stuff she thinks will get her in trouble usually comes well after the event ...but I'm still glad she tells me even if it's a bit late.
Overall I am pretty happy with our relationship. We do girly TV marathons, have D&m convos.....I don't know if it's exactly 'Gilmore Girls' but that's tv, right?

Also, I think it's healthy & normal for teenagers to keep some stuff from their parents...we don't need to know everything although i sure would like to... or maybe not... hmmm

I don't have a teenager yet, but it isn't so long since I was one - and I have siblings who are. I am one of 6 kids - 5 of us were girls.

None of us have ever had that "gilmore girls" type relationship with our mother (none of my female friends did either). It wasn't that we were deliberately keeping stuff from them, but rather it was just 'none of her business'. It would have been strange to talk to my mum about certain things. Even now, we talk alot more and get along pretty well, but I wouldn't talk to her if I had problems with my relationship or sex life for example, it's not really her business, and talk about 'awkward'.
