YUGH DD driving me NUTS advice needed.

[Guest guest]

She is driving me absolutely nutty. I know I have to learn to not push everything BUT there are a few things that she just doesn't get. She has changed so much this year. NOT sure if it is the teenage crap, friends, or just plan rebelling against me. She is so mean to her sister and NOW is showing signs of acting like her sister.

2 things that drive me nuts is her not listening. EXAMPLE today while getting her on the bus I went to pull her hair behind her ears. I have wanted her to get a haircut for quite sometime. She likes it long which doesn't bother me (even though she would look better with shorter) BUT she likes it hanging in her face. She has stringy hair that wont do much. BUT if she got a good cut it maybe a better deal. Anyway back to my point. She had these red skull earrings on. I know they weren't hers she said they were her friends. I said I don't want to see them on you again. Give them back to her today. It really didn't bother me they were a friends (even though I know she probably didn't clean them) BUT the skulls. I just don't like skulls and cross bone crap. So my question is what is the meaning of skulls and cross bones. I figure I better figure out in my head why I really don't like them. To me it is DANGER, DEATH, and just bad. I worry about it being a sign of depression I think. I then thought maybe it is the music she listens to. She likes metal music.

Any thoughts on how to deal with this? She is acting like her friends and NOT herself. AS much as she wont admit it she is not being a leader but a follower.
